Herakleitos of Rhodiapolis: Addenda et Corrigenda to TAM II 911
Description
The aim of this article is to revise and re-edit an inscription dating to the Roman Imperial Period found in the ancient city of Rhodiapolis, situated in the Kumluca district of Antalya province, Turkey. The inscription, which is a dedication by Herakleitos of Rhodiapolis, was found in the ancient city of Rhodiapolis, in the southeast of Teke Peninsula, Lycia in antiquity. Rhodiapolis, a site termed by locals “Gavuristan’’, was a member of the ancient Lycian League. Herakleitos, who was a priest, doctor, poet as well as a philosopher, was a citizen of Rhodiapolis whose fame exceeded the boundaries of this small town. He was known and honoured in some of the most important cities of the empire. The inscription in question, which is now lost, is yet another dedication by Herakleitos himself, which states that he had built a temple and erected statues of gods and goddesses
