which has been publifhed both by Gruter and M. 
Spon. I have taken no notice of the name IVPITER 
BEL VS, though it occurs in the feventh of Dr. Ber- 
nard’s Greek Palmyrene inferiptions; becaufe* that 
name, however the deity, to whom it appertained, 
might have been reverenced by them, did not pro- 
perly belong to the Palmyrenes. 
io. It has been remarked by (20) Mr. Seller, and 
may be colledted from fome of the (21) Palmyrene 
inferiptions themfelves, that feveral of the moll emi- 
nent citizens of Tadmor had both Syriac and Ro- 
man names. To which I would beg leave to add, 
that fome of their alfumed furnames feem to be de- 
ducible from the Greek language alfo ; the words PHI- 
LINVS, SELEVCVS, &c. that occur in the fifth, 
fixth, &c. of Mr. Dawkins’s Palmyrene inferiptions, 
being apparently fuch furnames. And this is farther con- 
firmed by the Palmyrene words now before me, and 
the correfpondent Greek infeription ; in the former 
of which the Palmyrene, whofe memory has been 
perpetuated by the monument I am at prefent con- 
fidering, is called IARHiEVS, or iARfEVS, and in 
the latter, T. AVRELIVS HELIODORVS. But, 
for a more particular account of the different appella- 
tions of the Palmyrenes, I mufl refer the curious to 
the writer (22) laff mentioned here.
