AΦEΣIMOΣ: a new reading in the Opramoas dossier from Rhodiapolis

Abstract

Although the Opramoas dossier at Rhodiapolis has been reconstructed and carefully studied, the size and extent of the inscription continue to invite analysis. This article focuses on the restoration of an adjective describing the days on which Opramoas' distributions took place. It traces some implications of the use of άφεσιμος and suggests that Opramoas described them as such in order to further advertise his munificence.
