Abstract

In advance of the publication of the corpus of inscriptions from Phocis and Doris in IG IX 12, fasc. 6, this article publishes some inscribed blocks found in the church of Agios Ioannis Theologos in Tithorea. The first group consists of four manumissions of slaves, dating to the time of Trajan, the texts of which provide evidence for the processes of archival and public record keeping in the city and in the sanctuary of Sarapis. The second group comprises two lists of names in the genitive, inscribed in the 5th or 6th c. AD at the foot of the altar in the basilica: they might be a list of deceased people, some of whose names are otherwise unattested for the period. The final part is an architectural study of the four inscribed blocks that certainly come from the urban sanctuary of Sarapis at Tithorea: they are the supports of two different tables for which there are parallels in the area of Hyampolis, which are presented in an appendix.

Keywords:
