Extract

The study of three small buildings at Balboura, set up by the city slave Onesimos and the wealthy Meleager near the southwest corner of the agora, is here concluded. Part I (AS XXXVIII (1988), 121–45) treated the exedra of Onesimos and his temple of Nemesis; here the exedra of Meleager and the associated inscriptions are presented. The numbering of the footnotes and figures, and the lettering of the sections continue on from Part I, and the same bibliographical abbreviations (ibid., 144–5) are used. It will also be necessary to refer to the city plan, state plans, restored plans, and restored elevations published there (Figs. 1–4).

92 Pillars and pilasters with such plant decoration are common, but the form is usually more complicated; see, for example, the Ara Pacis Augustae at Rome (E. Nash), Pictorial Dictionary of Ancient Rome (1961) IGoogle Scholar, figs. 63–6), the Library of Celsus at Ephesos (Praschniker, C., Forschungen in Ephesos V.i, Die Bibliothek (1943) XVII, 27–8, figs. 27–31, 66–7Google Scholar), and the niches of the Corinthian temple at Termessos (Lanckoronski II, pl. 7).

93 Sixteen-fluted columns were common on early Doric columns (Coulton, J. J., Greek Architects at Work (1977) 39Google Scholar), but are rare after the sixth century.

94 This uncanonical arrangement occurs sporadically from the Hellenistic period; see, for instance, the Stoa of Antigonos at Delos (Vallois, R., Exploration archéologique de Délos V, le Portique d'Antigone (1912) 22 n. 2Google Scholar).

95 In the Heroon at Saracık in East Lycia the columns were on pedestals, but the pilasters not (Petersen-von Luschan, 143, 152, fig. 67–72); and in Tomb S3 at Termessos the pilasters start a course higher than the columns (Lanckoronski, II, 108–11, figs. 74–7).

159 It is not clear to what building this entablature belongs. It was apparently entered by a monumental doorway from the street to the south, and included a partially colonnaded court, for the entablature (spans 2·00 to 2·30 m.) turned at least one re-entrant angle. This and the closeness of the bath building to the west suggest a small palaestra. At Oinoanda, bath Mk l was given a new palaestra in the Severan period (Ling, R. J., AS XXXI (1981) 33–53Google Scholar), and so too, perhaps, was Bath M 11 there.
