Transliterations on Places on

[1] This relief plaque was dedicated in the Asklepieion on the south slope of the Acropolis (on which, see IG II³ 4, 665). Only four letters are preserved, from which no sense can be made. The relief depicts a disembodied female breast. On such ‘anatomical votives’, see AIUK 4.5, pp. 69; J. Draycott and E.-J. Graham, Bodies of Evidence, 2017.
