Transcriber's Note
- - represents italic text; = = represents bold text; + + represents
strong text, sans serif. ^ denotes a superscript.
| inserted by the author to represent the end of a line of carving
on a document or monument. Sometimes | occurs in the middle of a
word, indicating the word has been split by a line-break.
In the all-caps Greek text, the book preserves some different Greek
letter-forms.
Compare the capital theta with a cross at the top of
p. 77, and theta with a dot at the bottom of p. 130.
There is a
V-like upsilon on p. 77, l. 7, and Y-like upsilon on p. 77, l. 12.
There is a capital lunate sigma, and an alpha with a v-shaped
crossbar on p. 202 ... and on p. 161, as a marking in silver on an
ounce weight with another symbol.
And there is the zeta like a rotated H on p. 6, and an upper and
lower case Koppa (Qoppa), and the Digamma (wau, stigm).
C.I.L. is abbreviation for '_Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum_'.
'Inscrr.', 'reff.': a double consonant signifies plural.
Some missing or damaged punctuation has been repaired.
Any illustration which intersected a paragraph, e.g., at a page
turn, has been moved to a more convenient position.
Page 20: (.··) corrected to (···) for consistency.
Page 56: 'suppose' corrected to 'supposed'.
"... _defixiones_, because they were supposed to fix down, as it
were, the hated enemy."
Page 64 (Footnote 32): A colon : has been used to represent the
triple vertical dots (a punctuation mark, much like a colon)
after [Greek: "Eksoida(s) m'anethêke Diwos qouroin megaloio]"
Page 103: Spearbutts; p. 104: Spear-Butts. Both retained.
Page 111: Superfluous 'a' removed.
"The stem may be fluted, or...."
Page 114: 'emall' corrected to 'small'.
