APC Image: AK 0905: Left: E.M. 12720. Small fragment of Pentelic marble. It belongs to the treasure-records of the Hekatompedon for the years 431/30 - 430/429 BC. Right: E.M. 12718. Fragment of bluish marble. The forms of the letters iindicate that the inscription must be dated toward the end of the fourth century, and the kings mentioned in line 2 must refer to Antigonus and Demetrius. The formula, so far as it can be restored, is almost identical with that used in the decree in honor of Oxythemis of Larisa, one of Demetrius ' friends, and it is highly probable that our fragment is part of a decree in honor of some other lieutenant of the same king.
