In an interesting paper which appeared in the Zeitschrift für Numismatik, 1877, Dr. Friedländer has brought together some remarkable inscriptions on coins of some Pamphylian cities; but it cannot be said that he has added anything to their elucidation beyond what had been already done by the late J. Siegismund in Curtius' Studien, vol. ix. p. 87. During the last few weeks before I left England, my attention was drawn to these and to the long inscription from Assarkeui, the ancient Sillyon, which is given very inaccurately in Böckh, C. I. G., and more correctly by Hirschfeld in the Monatsber. d. Berl. Ak. 1874, p. 714; and the following notes are the result of the conversations and correspondence which I had with Professor Sayce on the subject. Throughout the paper, Professor Sayce's name will often recur, but it must be distinctly understood that even where his name is not mentioned, and where he might not agree with the views expressed, his suggestions have been used, and the whole might have been more justly, as it would doubtless have been better, written by him.
I put forth the paper with much diffidence, as I have been obliged to write it without access to a good library, and am therefore obliged to trust to memory for a great many facts, and to want the additional light which good authorities would supply. Hence throughout the paper few references are given, and these usually in general terms. Several times Ahrens's articles in Philologies, xxxv. xxxvi., on the Cyprian Dialect are quoted as Ahrens, Cypr., no clearer reference being possible.

page 243 note 1 For the description of these and other coins I am indebted to Mr. Percy Gardner, on whose authority also I give the period to which they belong.

page 246 note 1 In the case of roots containing a double aspirate, the consonants are liable to great alterations: see Kuhn on Τελχίν and on Κένταυρος in Zft. f. vgl. Spr. vol. ii. p. 173, and Grassmann in vol. xii. Fick (Vgl. Wortb. vol. ii. p. 421) compares 
page 247 note 1 It may be some confirmation of Pertsch's view that, long before seeing his paper, I expressed the idea here indicated about the Lycian symbol in a letter to Prof. Sayce, and met with his complete approval.
page 248 note 1 Ahrens, in the passage referred to, has traced the history of this remarkable Epirote form. It is alluded to below, Sillyon inscription, note on line 7. Fick, in Bezzenberger's Beitr. vol. i., explains δόξα as the tense stem of the weak aorist employed as a noun. I prefer Ahrens' explanation as above.

page 250 note 1 I have only an early edition of Kirchhoff, Gr. Alph., in which he does not mention Pamphylian; and accordingly I quote from memory and a few notes made in the British Museum.
