Transliterations on Places on

[1] This statue base was dedicated in the Asklepieion on the south slope of the Acropolis (on which, see IG II³ 4, 665). Dionysios also dedicated IG II² 4519a along with his father and other relatives. The command was probably received in the form of a dream (see IG II³ 4, 718 with notes). The date is based on the prosopography of his family, on which see Aleshire, Asklepios, 107-108.
