228 APPENDIX I. 



the name Porimatis reoccurs in several genera- 

 tions of one of the leading families of the country. 

 The second syllable of the Greek name is drawn 

 out into two syllables in the Lycian, in a manner 

 analogous to the instance already pointed out 

 with MoAAiffioc. The letter e which follows this 

 name is omitted, being apparently copied instead 

 of the usual stops. 



prinezeyeue. This word has been restored from 

 another inscription in which it occurs, the No. 

 9 of Sir C. Fellows^ Plate 36. The dative 

 singular prineze occurs several times. The 

 author formerly translated this word beloved, 

 relying on the context ; but its meaning is now 

 ascertained by the Greek translation ouceioi, domes- 

 tic servants ; perhaps in this instance stewards. 

 In several of the Greek funereal inscriptions 

 copied by Mr. Daniell the oikuoi are mentioned, 

 or tombs are stated to be built for them by their 

 masters ; but it is a proof of the importance of 

 the Lord Porimatis, that his servants provided 

 themselves with a tomb of this order. 



urppe, the preposition for, in the Greek m. 

 This word is nearly lost in the crack across the 

 stone ; but, as it occurs in almost every inscription, 

 there is no danger in restoring it.
