The following inscriptions were copied on a journey made in April and May, 1911, in Lycia. We were accompanied throughout by Mr. Nikola Michael Ferteklis of Adalia, to whom our best thanks are due. We have also to acknowledge assistance from Mr. Tod and Mr. Woodward in the publication of the texts, and from Mr. Arkwright in the interpretation of the Lycian fragment from the Fellendagh (No. 29), and with certain of the names. Our other obligations are noted in their place. An accident to one of our horses, while we were crossing the Xanthus marshes on the way to Patara, damageda great part of our squeeze paper and we have had in a number of cases to rely only on our copies. It has seemed better therefore to state the cases where we had an impression, and where we had only a copy on which to rely.

24 I.e. the Tschukurbag of T.A.M. 54. In Jahreshefte, iii. Pt. 1, Beiblatt, p. 60, Prof. Kalinka gives the ethnic Πομαλίτης as occurring in an inscription at the site, and suggests Πόμαλα as the name.

26 The form varies between arawazija (T.A.M. 44 b46, 128, 135) and erawazija (40 c7, 117). Sundwall (Klio, 1911, 473) connects Karian (a)ravoss[y]ä, (a)rau(a)ssy with Lycian arawazija. His interpretation of arawa = freien Platz, e.g. heroum, in the light of Steph. Byz., ᾿´Ερευα ἡ καὶ ᾿Ελευθέρα is unconvincing. Kluge's suggestion (Muséon, xi. p. 15) that the word is to be connected with Gk. ἡρψον seems equally improbable. Mr. Arkwright gives us the following note: The rarer form er-awazija, not brought into harmony, shows the word to be a compound, probably from ere (ara), ‘succession,’ eri, ‘in succession,’ and *awazi, an adjective from awa, ‘with’ or ‘together.’ The suffix -ija forms a kind of collective, as in T.A.M. 842, hrzzě: is[b]azijê: (acc. sing.), ‘the upper row of benches,’ from isbazi, a ‘bench’ (κλίνη). The whole would mean ‘a set (of burial places) to be held in common in succession,’ i.e. ‘a hereditary family tomb.’
27 This is the most probable explanation, although Kluge (Mitt. Vord. Gesch. 1910, p. 36) suggests that the word may possibly be a proper name. No. 25, where tlãñna = Τλωεύς pilleñni = ἐκ Πινάρων is a dedication rather than an epitaph. In 2021 Mr. Arkwright considers tlawad as more probably a personal name.
In No. 69 Kluge connects tubure with Tyberissos, but this is not certain; and in No. 43 he suggests that pñnutahi may be an ethnic (? from Pyduai), but in No. 12 pñnuteh tideimi is certainly a patronymic. The use of the ethnic in the present example would be justified if a Xanthian were building his tomb in a foreign city.
28 We transliterate by ζ, following Mr. Arkwright, who regards as a sibilant very nearly approaching the Lycian Ι. (For his former view, now given up, = th, see jahreshefte ii. 68.)
29 For such names cf. Κτασάδας (Reisen, ii. 176), Κτασκάας (ib. ii. p. 146, n. 2), Κτησκείτου (J.H.S. xv. p. 112, 20, 25).
30 E.g. Torp, , Lykische Beitr. i. 34Google Scholar, as verbal substantive = Schädiger. See further, Kluge, op. cit. pp 49, 50.
31 If, as is possible, the suffix -ãi can also convey the sense of distribution over a space of time, awahai might be more simply rendered as ‘joint-rights from time to time’ or ‘successively.’
32 On the mindis v. Imbert, Mém. ix. 221, and Reisen, ii. No. 27, μὴ ἐξέστω δὲ ἀνοίγειν μηθενὶ ἄνευ τῆς μίνδιος, ἀλλὰ συμπαραινέτωσαν αὐτούς, where the mindis is explained as die Gesammtheit der συγγενεῖς Mr. Arkwright explains it as the κοινόν of the heirs, not of the kinsmen. In Reisen, ii. 27, Perpenenis, having no direct heirs, bequeathed his estate to his kinsmen, but such a bequest is most exceptional.
