Abstract
In this study, two new inscriptions preserved in the garden of Kalecik Municipality in Kalecik District of Ankara Province are introduced. One of the inscriptions was identified by the Anatolian Civilizations Museum during research conducted in Kalecik in 2019 and was placed in the open-air display area in front of Kalecik Municipality. It is the epitaph of Aurelius Helios, dated to 228 AD. This inscription identifies the previously unknown village of Ōnoukōme and the region named ALEBONŌN (Alebona?) in Kalecik. The second one is thought to be a supplication to God. The inscription contains meaningless letter combinations used to capture the listener's attention in the invocation to the father of the light repository part of Pistis Sophia, a Gnostic text dated to the 3rd- 4th centuries AD. Additionally, it includes expressions composed of these combinations found in the magical texts believed to belong to Mithras, preserved in the National Library of France, in a broad codex referred to as the Greek Magical Papyri, also dated to the 3rd century AD.

This six-line dodecasyllable epigram is inscribed on the east face of the base of the Masonry Obelisk (Built Obelisk) in the Hippodrome in Constantinople (fig. 1). It is still in situ, although damaged; it is also recorded in several surviving manuscripts. The most recent edition of the text can be found in A. Rhoby, Epigramme auf Stein, no. TR 53, with previous bibliography. The Masonry Obelisk was likely constructed in the fourth century CE, perhaps as an Ersatz-monument for a monolithic Egyptian Obelisk that had been delayed in transport (possibly the one later erected as the Theodosian Obelisk in the Hippodrome) (See, Ine Jacobs, Chapter 2). The Masonry Obelisk is said to be 32 meters high, the same height as the Lateran Obelisk in Rome, which was erected under Constantius II in the Circus Maximus in 357. Whatever the date of the original construction of the Masonry Obelisk in Constantinople, it had apparently fallen into disrepair by the tenth century, when Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos (r. 913-959) had it renovated and covered with bronze platting (now lost). This activity was commemorated in the epigram inscribed on the obelisk's base. It is unclear how, or whether, the bronze platting was attached to the ashlar stones of the obelisk itself, or whether it covered only the obelisk's base, where numerous revetment holes are apparent on every side of the base (fig. 2), except for the east side, which bears the inscription. Written in majuscule letters without accents, with a regular layout, the epigram emphasizes the "wonder" and "spectacle" aspects of the obelisk. The top two lines of the inscription are badly abraded, although it is unclear whether it was intentionally damaged at some late date or it has simply been worn over time. Constantine VII's son, Romanos, is mentioned in the text, which gives a date for the composition between 945-959, when Romanos was co-emperor with this father. The praise given to Romanos as Constantine's "child" may suggest the need to legitimize this Romanos in contrast with Constantine's deposed father-in-law, Romanos Lekapenos, or alternatively, it may indicate that the epigram was composed late in Constantine VII's reign by someone more closely affiliated with the young heir to the throne, as recently suggested by P. Magdalino.

A New Inscription from Pisidia
In this contribution, an inscribed stone from Beydili, a village on the borders of Pisidia, is introduced. This inscription was placed in the wall of a modern fountain constructed from ancient material. The inscription was brought from an ancient settlement called Asarbaşı, an area located ca. 1 km northwest of Beydili and which has not yet been investigated. The stone bearing a relief of a sword-shield belonged to an exedrion built by a certain Maisolos, a priest, for himself and for his family members. This inscription records an indigenous personal name, Bliddis, previously unattested. Furthermore, there is a new word, ξιμει (dat. of ξιμις?), the meaning and the position of which should be clarified. This word probably indicates the name of an ancient settlement near Beydili or is perhaps a divine name.
Beyond Spolia : A New Approach to Old Inscriptions in Late Antique Anatolia, American Journal of Archaeology 123.4 (Oct. 2019)
Turkish summary: Spolianın Ötesinde: Anadolu’daki Geç Antik Çağ Yazıtlarına Yeni Bir Bakış Son dönemdeki epigrafik çalışmaların da altını çizdiği üzere, yazıtlar metin olmaktan öte aynı zamanda birer arkeolojik nesnedir. Bu olgu, yazıtların yaratılışlarından ömürlerini tamamlamalarına kadarki bütün hayat süreçlerini, yeniden kullanılmalarını ve devamlı olarak teşhirlerini de göz önüne alarak anlamamızı gerektiriyor. Aynı yazıt, değişen bağlamlara bağlı olarak zaman içinde onu görenlere farklı mesajlar iletebilir. Bu makalede ilk önce yazılı ve arkeolojik kaynaklardan, Anadolu'daki erken Hıristiyan (Doğu Roma) döneminde (MS 4. - 6. yüzyıl) insanların kentlerinde Yunanca yazılmış eski yazıtları okumaya devam ettiklerine dair kanıtlar sunacağım. Şu anda Burdur Müzesi’nde bulunan ve paganlarca vakfedilen yazıtların, oldukça akıllıca ve kasıtlı olarak silinişini örnekleyen ve adakta bulunan kişiyi Hıristiyanlığın en erken takipçilerinden birisi olarak gösteren, devşirme malzemeden yapılmış bir vaftizhaneyi inceleyeceğim. Daha sonra, duvarlarında Roma imparatoru Augustus'un Res Gestae adlı yazıtının olmasıyla ünlü olan Ankara'daki Augustus ve Roma Tapınağı’nı inceleyeceğim. "Yazıtların Kraliçesi" olarak adlandırılan bu metin tesadüfen değil, Roma'dan Osmanlı ve Cumhuriyet dönemlerine kadar yerel halkın aldığı bir dizi karar sayesinde ayakta kaldı. Tapınağın ne zaman bir Hristiyan kilisesine dönüştürüldüğüne dair kanıtları inceleyerek bu olayın muhtemelen geç antik çağda (5. veya 6. yüzyıl) gerçekleştiğini ileri süreceğim. Res Gestae'ın altında, duvara bir dizi haç ve daha sonra Bizans (9. veya 10. yüzyıl) mezar metinleri oyulmuştur. Res Gestae ile birlikte Galat rahiplerinin bir listesinin Hıristiyan takipçiler için sahip olabileceği potansiyel anlamları da göz önünde bulundurmakta fayda görüyorum. (trans.

A Funerary Inscription from Herakleia Pontike: Ephebarchos and Paraphylax Aurelius Artemonianos Menios, ZPE 199 (2016) 99–103
Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik (ZPE), 2016
With the permission of The Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism’s General Directorate of Culture Heritage and Museums and the directory of the Karadeniz Ereğli Museum, a new project was pursued in 2007 to classify and to publish the Greek and Latin inscriptions in the Museum. The recorded inscriptions are all from the Zonguldak (Eastern Bithynia) Region where the ancient cities Herakleia Pontike and Tieion/Tios were located. So far, eighteen new inscriptions of the Museum have been published in two articles and a third one followed wherein a dedication to Herakles Aleksikakos is discussed. In this present paper a new funerary inscription of a magistratus from the Roman imperial period is presented. It has been found behind the Industrial Estate of Ereğli-Zonguldak in 2010, and is being exhibited in the garden of the Museum with the inventory no. A-2010/38. Rectangular sandstone (στήλη) broken at top and bottom. At the top is a bas-relief depicting an education scene.
A Lord’s Prayer inscription from Amorium and the materiality of early Byzantine Christian prayer, Anatolian Studies 72 (2022) [OA]
Anatolian Studies, 2022
This article presents an analytical study of a rare example of the text of the Lord’s Prayer inscribed on an early Byzantine ceramic plate that was found in excavations at Amorium. The graffito inscription is discussed in detail and the text identified securely with the Lord’s Prayer as preserved from the Gospels of Mathew and Luke. It is an extremely rare find in Asia Minor. At the same time, the inscribed vessel is examined as an object within its possible context, ecclesiastical, domestic or other, through comparison with other known examples. Finally, the article discusses the possible uses of the Lord’s Prayer in day-to-day life and the materiality of prayer for Christians during the early Byzantine period between the fourth and seventh centuries. Bu makale, Amorium kazılarında bulunmuş olan ve erken Bizans dönemine ait seramik bir tabak üzerine yazılmış Rab'bin Duası metninin nadir bir örneğinin analitik çalışmasıdır. Grafiti yazıt ayrıntılı olarak tartışılmış, Matta ve Luka İncil’lerinde korunduğu şekliyle karşılaştırılarak güvenli bir şekilde Rab'bin Duası olarak tanımlanmıştır. Bu, Küçük Asya için son derece nadir bir buluntudur. Aynı zamanda bu yazıtlı kap, bilinen diğer örneklerle karşılaştırılarak, dini, ev içi veya diğer olası bağlamları içinde bir nesne olarak incelenmiştir. Son olarak, makale Rab'bin Duası'nın günlük yaşamdaki olası kullanımlarını ve 4. ve 7. yüzyıllar arasındaki erken Bizans döneminde Hıristiyanlar için duanın önemini tartışmaktadır.
The Baptismal Well Inscription of Ex Comitibus Leo, son of Leo from the Kırşehir Museum.
Cedrus, 2023
This article concerns a large inscription carved in marble, which was found used as a decorative object in the garden of a private property in the Boztepe District of Kırşehir Province and later included in 2016 in the inventory of the Kırşehir Museum. The new inscription featured a Psalm verse and the name of the person who had the inscription made, someone called Leo with the title of ex comitibus. It is noteworthy because the verse concerns baptism and the hole in the center indicates it was used as a lid to a baptismal well. In contrast to the baptismal pools used commonly in the Early Christian period, having a well specifically for this ritual makes this a rare documented example. This study aims to determine the exact function and the date of the inscribed stone. The subject of baptism in the Early Christian period and the historical development of the comes title, which became widespread during the reign of Constantine I, have been examined to provide perspective. Thinking that they would contribute to the dating explanations have also provided for the elaborate decoration carrying the style of the period.

New Inscriptions from Karadeniz Ereğli Museum IV (Herakleia Pontike and Tieion/Tios), Tyche 35, 2020 (2021) 143–155, plates 13-18.
Tyche. Beiträge zur alten Geschichte, Papyrologie und Epigraphik – Contributions to Ancient History, Papyrology and Epigraphy, 2021
As a result of the epigraphic studies carried out since 2007 in the “Karadeniz Ereğli Museum”, numerous Greek and Latin inscriptions from the Roman and Byzantine periods have been recorded and added to the literature. The inscriptions are all from the Zonguldak (Eastern Bithynia) region where the ancient cities of Herakleia Pontike and Tieion/Tios were located. In the present paper, five new inscriptions are presented; four of them were found in different parts of central Ereğli, which is within the borders of Herakleia Pontike, while one was found on the banks of the Filyos (ancient Billaios) River in the village of Kayıkçılar in Çaycuma district, which is within the southern borders of Tieion/Tios. The first one is a dedication for an unknown God and the following three are new grave inscriptions from the Roman period and finally is a building inscription from the Byzantine/Christian period. Those inscriptions are given alphabetically below: 1. With good fortune! I, the Hieropoios (sacrifice maker) Aur(elius) Zeuxios, son of Theodosios, inscribed (this) for god. 2.

Epigraphies of Anatolia their histories and their future Symposium Booklet
program and abstracts symposium of epigraphies of Anatolia, From antique to Ottoman times. For several millennia most of the civilisations of Anatolia used inscription on stone to preserve important texts – whether public documents or private commemorations. While this procedure is found in many civilisations across the world, the particular wealth of Anatolia in high-quality stones and marbles has ensured an exceptionally rich harvest of texts. Over the last couple of centuries, work on these documents has helped us understand more and more of this deep and multi-layered historical heritage, which is constantly developing and enriching our understanding. The aim of the symposium is to allow experts, who work on the inscribed texts of different cultures, to present their work and compare their experiences, building a sense of the history of the epigraphic discipline. During the symposium we intend to look at how earlier generations have interacted with such texts by tracing the steady development of methodologies. We will examine how inscribed texts have introduced us to languages which had been unread for several millennia. Finally, we will look at how we can teach the necessary skills and find ways to offer the fullest possible access, both in and beyond Turkey, to this unique storehouse of knowledge.
Inscriptions from Neoklaudiopolis/Andrapa (Vezirköprü, Turkey)
Since 2010, a number of inscriptions, complete or fragmentary, have come to light in Vezirköprü, Samsun province (ancient Neapolis/Neoklaudiopolis/Andrapa). The inscriptions published here include four grave steles set up in memory of civilians as well as one inscription commemorating a beneficiarius. Though more than 1,000 beneficiarius inscriptions have been found so far, this is the first securely attested case where one soldier is identified both as a beneficiarius and a stationarius. A further important feature of this inscription is the use of the word Ἀνδραπηνῶν. While the place-name Andrapa for Neapolis/Neoklaudiopolis is known from Ptolemy’s Geography and Late Roman church records, it has not until now been documented epigraphically. Makalede, Samsun’a bağlı Vezirköprü (antik Neapolis veya Neoklaudiopolis veya Andrapa) yöresinde 2010 yılından sonra bütün ya da parçalar halinde ele geçen ve 4 tanesi bazı sivillere, biri de bir askere (beneficiarius) ait olan 5 adet yeni yazıt yayınlanmaktadır. Günümüze kadar beneficiarius olarak görev yapan askerlerden söz eden 1000’den fazla yazıt bulunmuş olup, bu makalede yayınlanan 3 No.’lu yazıtta ilk kez bir asker hem beneficiarius hem de stationarius olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Aynı yazıtın diğer bir önemli özelliği de, Andrapa şeklindeki yer adının genetivus hali olan Ἀνδραπηνῶν ifadesini kaydetmesidir. Ptolemaios’un (İ.S. 2. yüzyıl) Coğrafya adlı eserinden ve geç devir kilise kayıtlarından öğrendiğimize göre, Andrapa Antik devirde Neapolis/Neoklaudiopolis (Vezirköprü) kentine verilen diğer bir isimdi, ki bu isim bir yazıtta ilk kez görülmektedir.

A Rock-cut Tomb from Arpacık Boyalı Mevkii with an Inscription in Lycian, 2024
Abstract: The research project entitled “Byzantine Settlements around Alacadağ in the Lycian Region” has been underway since 2014 with the aim of identifying and documenting Late Antique and Medieval rural settlements in the mountainous area north of Demre (Myra), Antalya district. During the sur- veys in 2022, a rock tomb and some building remains that can be dated to the Classical period were found in the mountainous area north of Belören village in a place called Katranağaç and Arpacık Tepe by the locals. The buildings were placed at intervals on the southern slope of the hill, facing the village, along a line of about 750 metres in an east-west direction. The rock tomb with an inscription in the Lycian language, which is the subject of this article, is located on the east- ern side of the rock at an altitude of 937.60 metres in the Arpacık locality. There are also agricultural areas formed by terraces in front of the tomb structure to- wards the south. The inscription in Lycian language is written in 4 lines in funer- ary style. The analysis of the inscription and the tomb is the subject of this study.
Some Greek Inscriptions from Caria and Phrygia

Inscriptions from the Sanctuary of Μήτηρ Θεῶν Ουεγεινος at Zindan Mağarası I
GEPHYRA, 2011
The three inscriptions presented here were found during the excavation of the sanctuary at Zindan Mağarası (Zindan cave). The first inscription shows that the sanctuary was dedicated to Meter Theôn Veginos and the second inscription indicates that the sanctuary was constructed during the reign of Marcus Aurelius. The authors suggest that the chief city of this rural sanctuary must have been Timbriada which can be located at the ruins in Asartepe in the vicinity of the modern county of Aksu in the Province of Isparta. From the last inscription we learn for the first time that the ancient city of Timbriada was a member of the Panhellenion created by the Emperor Hadrian in 131/2 A.D. The city was represented at the assembly of the Panhellenion through its citizens Samos and Abas, most probably during the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius.
