Yorum

Commentary mostly from SEG, after Herrmann:

“The identity of the mystai must have been evident from the place where the inscription was erected: honorary inscription for a member of the cultic association who died as an ephebe [Chiron, p. 317 n. 9; L. Robert, Hellenica XIII, p. 207, with n. 3; id., Laodicée, p. 265] rather than an epitaph.”

2 Ligature: -ΔΗΝ

2–3 Κοττῆα: unusual spelling of the accusative of Κοττεύς (either an ethnic/demotic or, preferred by O. Masson apud ed. pr., a second name) rather than of Κοττης, Κοττᾶς, and Κοττώ; cf. J. and L. Robert, Hellenica VI, pp. 11–13; see also L. Robert, Noms indig., p. 283.

According to C. P. Jones, New Heroes in Antiquity (2010), the attribute ἥρως, especially in honorific inscriptions, attests a heroic cult.
