[372] Cf. Capps, “Dramatic Synchoregia at Athens,” _American Journal
of Philology_, XVII (1896) 319 ff.; “Catalogues of Victors at the
Dionysia and Lenaea,” _ibid._, XX (1899), 388 ff.; “The Dating of Some
Didascalic Inscriptions,” _American Journal of Archaeology_, IV (1900),
74 ff.; “The Introduction of Comedy into the City Dionysia,” _Decennial
Publications of the University of Chicago_, VI (1904), 259 ff.; and
“Epigraphical Problems in the History of Attic Comedy,” _American Journal
of Philology_, XXVIII (1907), 179 ff.; Wilhelm, _Urkunden dramatischer
Aufführungen in Athen_ (1906), and “Eine Inschrift aus Athen,” _Anzeiger
d. Akademie d. Wissenschaften in Wien, phil.-hist. Klasse_, XLIII (1906),
77 ff.; Clark, “A Study of the Chronology of Menander’s Life,” _Classical
Philology_, I (1906), 313 ff.; _Oxyrhynchus Papyri_, IV (1904), 69 ff.,
and X (1914), 81 ff.; O’Connor, _Chapters in the History of Actors and
Acting in Ancient Greece_ (1908); Jachmann, _De Aristotelis Didascaliis_

Hypotheses,” _Classical Philology_, V (1910), 1 ff.
[373] Reisch, however, in his review of Wilhelm in _Zeitschrift f. östr.
Gymnasien_, LVIII (1907), 297 f. maintained that the original cutting
went to the bottom of col. 14. This would postpone the preparation of
the inscription until about 330 B.C. and would make it a feature of the
completion of the theater by Lycurgus at about that time. He suggests
that the Fasti stood in the left parodus of the theater.
[374] Fig. 75 is taken from Wilhelm, _Urkunden dramatischer Aufführungen
in Athen_, p. 18, and represents fragments _a_ and _f_ of _Corpus
Inscriptionum Graecarum_, II, 971.
[375] Fig. 76_a_ is taken from Wilhelm, _op. cit._, p. 40, and represents
_Corpus Inscriptionum Graecarum_, II, 973.
[376] Körte, “Aristoteles’ ΝΙΚΑΙ ΔΙΟΝΥΣΙΑΚΑΙ,” _Classical Philology_,
I (1906), 391 ff., maintained that the Victors’-Lists were transferred
to stone straight from another book of Aristotle’s entitled Νῖκαι
Διονυσιακαὶ Ἀστικαὶ καὶ Ληναϊκαί (“Victories at the City Dionysia and
the Lenaea”). Our knowledge of the nature of this work is confined to
what can be inferred from its title and is too vague to justify dogmatic
conclusions.
[377] Figs. 77_a_ and _b_ are taken from Wilhelm, _op. cit._, 101,
and represent _Corpus Inscriptionum Graecarum_, II, 977_a_ and _ab_
respectively.
[378] Fig. 78 is taken from Wilhelm, _op. cit._, p. 107 and represents
_Corpus Inscriptionum Graecarum_, II, 977_i_ and _k_, together with two
previously unpublished fragments.
[379] Fig. 79 is taken from Wilhelm, _op. cit._, p. 123, and represents
_Corpus Inscriptionum Graecarum_, II, 977_d_, _e_, _f_, _g_, and _h_.
[380] Fig. 80 is taken from Clarac, _Musée de Sculpture_, III, Pl. 294,
Fig. 65. Note that the first play in the list on the background is the
