page 213 note 1 The distance was measured by trocheameter. The total distance traversed between Chekirji and Tcheltik (the journey was made from N.E. to S.W.) was over 80 miles. After deduction for deviations, the straight road works out at rather less than 50 miles.

page 214 note 1 The exact distance by road is twenty miles; but the road winds considerably. The true distance is about two-thirds of that measurement.

page 214 note 2 Perhaps' Ολιγος, a name of humility, was intended.

page 214 note 3 See Cronin in J.H.S. 1902, p. 359. Mr. Cronin's suggestion that πρωιοκωμ⋯ιης means ‘ a native of Πρ⋯ια Κώμη or Πρώιη Κώμη’ must now be abandoned, as the title has been found in another Lycaonian village by Sir W. M. Ramsay. As πρ⋯ιος κωμ⋯ιης becomes πρωιοκωμ⋯ιης, so πρ⋯ιος becomes πρωιογαλαι⋯ας. Strictly, πρ⋯ιος in such phrases takes the genitive in all similar cases, so that πρ⋯ιος κωμηι⋯ν would be the natural form, like primus, civium, coloniae, etc.
