30 Dr. Kennepy Batwie’s Researches amongst the inscribed Monuments 
the very same repairs.* Here, therefore, we have all the facts we can desire . 
in the Teian inscription we require one, but this I should be disposed to infer 
by the very same process of reasoning by which I should arrive at the name of 
Constantius, supposing it to have wholly disappeared from the Aphrodisian monu- 
ment. 
My present collection contains two other inscriptions copied from well-mouths 
in the same direction with this last, but so very mutilated and indistinct as to 
convey no precise information. I shall not detain the Academy, therefore, any 
longer with these presumed memorials of ancient Teos, but proceed to the next 
site after Ephesus where my labours were rewarded in this field of research. 
This was Aphrodisias, a portion of the site of which is now occupied by the 
huts of the villagers of Gheyerah. 
Ere I proceed, however, to my details respecting this locality, it may be 
proper to offer a few words in explanation of what I stated in my former Me- 
moir on the subject of the inscribed records of Tralles. Whilst I remained at 
Aidin (the modern town which occupies the ground at the base of the ancient 
Acropolis), I devoted a considerable part of my time to visiting the existing re- 
mains of antiquity, to which the traveller ascends by a steep and rather rugged 
ascent from the quarter which is occupied by the Palace of the Pasha. His Ex- 
cellency had most kindly placed horses at my disposal, and ordered one of his 
medical attendants to accompany me during my progress, by which means I was 
enabled to have a sight of all its remarkable features without any loss of time. 
I was conducted by this gentleman to the ruins of the palace, gymnasium, or 
whatever else it may be called, which occupied the highest point of the citadel, of 
which three of the arches yet remain, the central one nearly perfect, and conducting 
into a court, the ground-level of which was profusely decorated with fragments 
of the ancient splendour of Tralles. Here are also remains of the Peribolus of 
the building, and on the road which runs parallel to these, fragments of a re- 
markable monolith of a rose-coloured granite, which it must have cost the bar- 
barians some trouble to reduce to its present state of shapeless ruin. 
Inscriptions exist in this building, which seems, like many others I met with 
* Viz. in a titulus which I copied when at Gheyerah. The reader will find it also in Mr. Fel- 
lows’ volume, ii. x. 18, p- 39.
