						<head>Commentary</head>    
						
<p> These three inscriptions record contracts of sale (διαγραφαί) of the same priesthood of Poseidon Helikonios (for two similar documents from Priene, see <ref target="CGRN_175">CGRN 175</ref> and <ref target="CGRN_176">CGRN 176</ref>). The texts were engraved on three different stelai, A being inscribed around the year 200; B and C somewhat later. Apart from the "amendment" at the end of contract B, which is a decree of the city of Priene, the texts appear to be highly similar, allowing for many secure restorations in each text on the basis of the two others (cf. Wiemer - Kah, p. 39-40, for a convenient synoptic layout of the three texts, and the edition of <bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl>, where these restorations are underlined). Each text begins with a separate section listing the date, namely the year of the eponymous <foreign>stephanephoros</foreign>—who was the god (Zeus Olympios) in A and B, appointed in years when no mortal assumed the office; cf. Robert 1946: 51-64 and 154-155—and the month; the identity of the purchaser (lost in C); and the price he paid (lost in A and B, only partially preserved in C). The prerogatives and privileges of the priest are recorded next in a more detailed section. These contracts focus strongly on fiscal and honorific issues (tax exemption, meals, proedry, wreath-wearing, etc.), while hardly anything is said about ritual, except that the priest has to perform a θυσία for Poseidon (A, lines 6-7 and B, lines 6-7) and that he is to provide cakes in this capacity. A guarantee clause is added to each of these contracts, by which those who deprive the buyer of the priesthood of any of his privileges, or try to change any of the decisions made, are cursed with utter destruction, both for themselves and their possessions. </p>
							
<p> The fact that this priesthood has been sold three times for life during a rather short period of time (probably less than half a century) may lead us to postulate one or two hypotheses: either the priests did not actually hold the priesthood throughout their whole life, or each purchaser died within a few years of having bought the priesthood. The second option is more probable and leads us to consider the possible age of the priests: one might suppose that the priesthood was each time bought by a man of fairly advanced age. However, the tax exemption on the father's properties (A, lines 20-21; B, lines 20-21) may also imply that the purchaser had not already inherited his ancestral properties and thus the priest would in some cases be expected to have been relatively young.</p>
													
<p> The cult of Poseidon Helikonios was widely spread in the specific regions of Ionia and the Ionian Pontic colonies (cf. here <ref target="CGRN_120">CGRN 120</ref> from Sinope). It possibly originated from Helike in Achaia (on which see Mylonopoulos, p. 35-40) or otherwise from Mount Helikon in Boeotia (see below, on line A3). The god was worshipped by the twelve cities of the Ionians in eastern Anatolia, at the Panionion which lay in the territory of Priene, and during the festival of the Panionia (Hdt. 1.148). The sanctuary was probably founded already in the 8th century BC at Otomatik Tepe, near Güzelçamlı (Herda 2006; cf. <bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl> 398 and 399 for 4th-century inscriptions from this area; but see Lohmann for a different view, with Lohmann 2007 and Herda 2009 for a continuation of this discussion). At the end of the 3rd and beginning of the 2nd century BC, the Panionian cult of Poseidon Helikonios still took place at Otomatik Tepe, but the priesthood was exclusively controlled by Priene. Apart from their participation in the Panionian cult, Ionian cities also worshipped the god in local sanctuaries of the god (cf. e.g. the Helikonion on Samos, (<bibl type="abbr" n="IG XII.6">IG XII.6</bibl> 168 / <bibl type="abbr" n="LSCG">LSCG</bibl> 122). At Priene, a local cult also seems to have taken place in the city: one dedication has been found at the theatre (<bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl> 177, 3rd century BC), while another was found reused near Athena's treasury (<bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl>  178, 2nd century BC); an altar of the god, associated with Augustus, was also found near the Asklepieion (<bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl>, 179). For a possible local cult-place of the god in the city, near the temple of Athena, cf. Hennemeyer.</p>
						
<p>Text A</p>
							
<p>Lines A3 (and B2): The geographical origin of the epithet Helikonios, already disputed in antiquity, has still not been fully resolved. Etymology would support the view that the epithet is connected to Mount Helikon in Boeotia, because, if the cult had originated from Helike in Achaia, the epithet Helikeios (rather than Helikonios) for “from Helike”, would be expected (Chantraine, <bibl type="abbr" n="DELG">DELG</bibl>, s.v. Ἑλικών). The connection with Helike could be a later creation (Lohmann 2004: 35-36), whereas an ancient link with the Boeotian Helikon has to be taken in consideration, since a dedication found there (<bibl type="abbr" n="I.Thesp.">I.Thesp.</bibl> 273) could be an evidence that the god was worshipped with this epithet as early as the 7th or 6th century BC.</p>
		
<p>Line A4 : An Epameinon is known in 2nd-century-BC Priene, as a <foreign>neopoios</foreign> (<bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl> 117b), and two other homonyms as the father and son of a priestess (<bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl> 193). Whether the purchaser of the priesthood of Poseidon should be identified with or was related to one of them remains enigmatic, since his father's name has disappeared; yet it would be unsurprising that priesthoods and liturgies such as the <foreign>neopoia</foreign> were held by members of the same families.</p>
							
<p>Lines A10-11 (and B10-11 / C6-7): Compare the privileges of the priest of Dionysus Phleos (<ref target="CGRN_176">CGRN 176</ref>, lines 6-8), who gets to eat daily in the prytaneion and in the Panionion. The fact that the Prienians were able to grant such privileges to priests not directly involved in the Panionian cult is revealing of their influence on the federal sanctuary at this time; alternatively, it may suggest that the privileges granted by Priene to the priests (and particularly that of Dionysus) relate to a Panionion located at Priene itself (see above for further discussion).</p>
							
<p>Lines A11-12 (and B12 / C8-9): The privilege to sit in the front row and the wearing of a (golden) wreath are recurrent priestly perquisites; cp. here <ref target="CGRN_123">CGRN 123</ref> (Tomis), lines 7-9, <ref target="CGRN_124">CGRN 124</ref> (Pergamon), with Commentary on lines 16-18, and <ref target="CGRN_167">CGRN 167</ref> (Kos), lines 12-13. </p>
						
<p>Lines A12-13 (and B14-15): The word στροφίσκος is an expected diminutive of στρόφιον, “headband worn by priests” (cf. <bibl type="abbr" n="LSJ">LSJ</bibl> s.v.). The two different kinds of crowns, worn on different occasions and in different locals—the στέφανος during contests in Priene and the στροφίσκος in the Panionion—seem to develop the articulation between the two different levels of the priesthood—the Prienian and the Panionian respectively (cf. Robert 1960: 452-453).</p>
							
<p>Lines A14-16 (and B14-16): For each animal sacrificed, the priest shall furnish sacrificial cakes called ἐπιπέμματα; cp. here <ref target="CGRN_81">CGRN 81</ref> (Thebes-on-the-Mykale), lines 14-15. For the <foreign>tetarteus</foreign> (literally “a quarter” of a <foreign>medimnos</foreign>) and other dry measures used for such provisions at Priene, cf. <ref target="CGRN_176">CGRN 176</ref>, lines 10-12, with Commentary.</p>
						
<p>Text B</p>
						
<p>Lines B1 (and B22): The name of the purchaser's father, Sosibios, is attested for a <foreign>neopoios</foreign> without patronym (<bibl type="abbr" n="IK.Priene">IK.Priene</bibl> 109, mid-190's BC), but no identification is certain; see Commentary on line A4, above. On the role of the civic <foreign>neopoios</foreign> in Priene, cf. <ref target="CGRN_157">CGRN 157</ref>, line 4, with Commentary.</p>
	
<p>Lines B22-41: These lines represent an amendment to the contract. In spite of their very fragmentary state, the additions seem to deal with other privileges and prerogatives attached to the priesthood, as may be discerned for example from the mention of gold(en crowns?) (line 25) and liturgies (lines 30 and 32). It is not completely certain that lines B28-41 of a separate fragment, Bh, belong to the same inscription. The fragmentary content of this part of the inscription precludes the drawing of firm conclusions in this respect. In line B23, the name of the month Taureon is probably connected with the sacrifice of a bull to Poseidon Helikonios during the festival of the Taureia, cf. Hom. <title>Il.</title> 20.402-405. For the importance of this month in the cult of this god, cf. <ref target="CGRN_120">CGRN 120</ref> (Sinope), line 9, and <bibl type="abbr" n="Milet VI.3">Milet VI.3</bibl> 1218.</p>
												
<p>Line B31 (cf. also lines C5-6): If the proposed restoration is correct, this would mean that an exemption from all liturgies has been added as a privilege for the priest as part of this amendment (which would at the same time allow a similar restoration in lines C5-6). This could have been a way for the city of making the priesthood more attractive to potential purchasers. We might even infer that such potential purchasers, coming from the elite of Priene and having a vested  interest in being exempted from liturgies, themselves had some influence on the drafting of this amendment or on the contracts (διαγραφαί) themselves. For another element in this phenomenon, compare <ref target="CGRN_176">CGRN 176</ref>, lines 24-30 (from ca. 130 BC, i.e. some decades later), which indexes the exemption from liturgies to the price paid for the priesthood at Priene.</p>
							
<p>Line B36: The role of the hearth or altar for burnt-offerings in this part of the inscription remains enigmatic. An ἐσχάρα is only attested on one occasion elsewhere in this Collection, also in the context of the specification of priestly perquisites, cf. <ref target="CGRN_57">CGRN 57</ref> (Aixone), line 33. An ἐσχάρα of Poseidon Helikonios is attested in Athens, though perhaps dubiously (<bibl type="abbr" n="FGrH">FGrH</bibl> 323 F 1—Klei(to)demos).</p>
						
<p>Text C</p>
							
<p>Lines C3-4: The selling-price, lacking in texts A and B, is (rather highly) restored here: Wiemer - Kah's proposition of 472 dr. is based on the order of magnitude of the selling-price in <ref target="CGRN_175">CGRN 175</ref>, lines 41-42 (from Priene) and on an estimation of the number of letters missing in the lines. But if the clause about (exemption from) all liturgies in line B31 actually pertains to this contract, then an amount of more than 4000 dr. (cf. Wilamowitz, apud Hiller von Gaertringen: τ[ετρακισχιλίων]) should not be considered as implausible. About the "tenth" or 10% tax and other modalities of payment for priesthoods at Priene, cf. here <ref target="CGRN_176">CGRN 176</ref> lines 30-35, with Commentary.</p>
