Antalya'dan Yeni Adak Yazıtları

New Votive Inscriptions from Antalya

The article presents a total of ten new inscriptions on stelae, eight of which were donated to Antalya Museum while the other two were found during road construction by the General Directorate of State Highways and taken to the courtyard of the 13th District Centre of the Directorate. All the inscriptions are of votive character and engraved on limestone blocks. The items at the museum were studied with the permission issued for 2007 and 2008 by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, General Directorate of Museums and Monuments. Unfortunately, the origins of the items are unknown. It is clear that thelast two inscriptions (nrs. 9 and 10) dedicated to Artemis of Perge were brought from the territory of Perge. The first seven inscriptions are dedicated to various rider gods while the eighth one is dedicated to Artemis Cynegetis and Dodecatheoi (i.e. twelve gods) (nr. 8). The eighth stele differs itself from classical dodecatheoi materials with respect to stylistic and epigraphic features. Among the rider gods, in addition to the Dioscuroi (nrs. 1 and 2) and Heracles (nrs. 3 and 4), there is a local deity attested for the first time and read as Ορδας or Ουρδος (nrs. 5 and 6). One inscription (Nr. 2) verifies the Epekooi (hearing the prayers) epithet of the Dioscuroi. The last inscription (nr. 7) is also a votive offering to a rider god whose name is not legible. The stelae are dated mostly to the 2nd and 3rd centuries A.D.
