A suppliant at Gerasa (Greek epigraphic evidence from the temple of Zeus-Olympius)
THE TEMPLE OF ZEUS OLYMPIUS AT GERASA has yielded several inscribed dedications, which identify for us the god of the place.' Three texts derive from one man, Theon, who was a suppliant in the temple in A.D. 69/70. The few scholars who have tried to reconstruct his story are greatly at variance. R. O. Fink thought that he was a Gerasene who dedicated his children to the god as sacred slaves in some oriental manner.2 Welles (1938: 377), who knew from another inscription (I. Gerasa no. 30) that Gerasa had the civic title "sacred and inviolable," thought that Theon had availed himself of a Greek privilege and taken refuge in Gerasa from some other city. Theon's case is worth exploring, as this is one of the rare episodes of temple-refuge in the documentary record. We have two stones, which contain between them three texts inscribed by three hands.3 I. Gerasa no. 5:
期刊介绍:
Phoenix aims to publish scholarly papers embodying original research in all areas of Classical Studies: the literature, language, history, philosophy, religion, mythology, science, archaeology, art, architecture, and culture of the Greek and Roman worlds from earliest times to about A.D. 600. Articles should make a fresh, interesting, and significant contribution to our understanding of classical antiquity. The journal welcomes submissions that use new approaches to elucidate their chosen topic and wishes to encourage more submissions on broader themes, as well as those that treat a single question in a detailed manner. Authors should ensure that the argument of the paper is clearly expressed and its general significance made clear.
