Transliterations on Places on

[1] This relief plaque was probably dedicated in the Asklepieion on the south slope of the Acropolis (on which, see IG II³ 4, 665). The relief depicted the disembodied abdomen and right thigh of a man. On such ‘anatomical votives’, see AIUK 4.5, pp. 69; J. Draycott and E.-J. Graham, Bodies of Evidence, 2017.
