IG II² 2314 + Tracy – Habicht, Hesperia 60, 1991, 189–190: Panathenaic victor lists

182/81 and 178/77 BCE (?)

victor list

Tracy and Habicht, Hesperia 60, 1991, 218, tentatively date the incription as follows:
Col. I: 182/1 BCE (?)
Col. II: 178/7 BCE (?)

On Col. II: It remains unclear, in which discipline Hermione achieved her second victory at the Panathenaia. Tracy and Habicht, who have supplemented [κέλητι πωλικῶι] for l. 94, note that this reconstruction is arbitrary (p. 222).

The sisters Hermione and Zeuxo are also recorded as victresses in IG II² 2313. Since the whole family was very active in the hippic events at the Panathenaia, the reconstruction of their names is plausible.

See also SEG 41-114.
