ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS PAGE


lv, l. 24. Cf. Hicks, Inscriptions, 3 Ephesos, p. 76: the temple of Artemis was not
merely rich in endowments, and in the accumulated gifts of pilgrims and worshippers;

but also, beyond this, the inviolable sanctity of the temple, and the renown of its
hierarchy, made it the chief bank of deposit for Asia.
lviii, l. 10. Prof. Reid points out to me that the Augusteum in Smyrna was not
dedicated to Tiberius alone; see Tac. Ann. 4:15 decrevere Asiae urbes templum Tiberio
matrique eius et senatui.
lx, l. 6. On this point Prof. Reid writes: The difficulty which Christians felt in
membership of the guilds was by no means confined to the question of the feasts. There
was probably no guild which was not devoted to some form of heathen worship.
Membership was therefore ipso facto bowing down in the house of Rimmon. Direct
participation in ceremonies was only incumbent on officials of the guild; but any one
possessed of money enough to pay the summa honoraria would find it hard to decline
office.
lxi. Further illustrations of the life of the Asian Cities will be found in C.I.G. 3266,
3285, 3415, 3416, 3428, 3460, 3497, 3498, 3508, 3517.
lxxxii, 1. 24. I am reminded by Prof. Reid that the assumption of these titles by
Domitian was not official. According to Mommsen, Staatsr. 11. p. 760, the first official
use of them was by Aurelian.
ccix, 1. 12. Miss Pause informs me that the commentary which accompanies the
early English versions of the Norman-French Apocalypse (see p. cxci) shews no
tendency to identify Antichrist with the papacy.

84, col. 2, l. 22. The bow was the Parthian weapon (Ramsay, Letters, p. 58).
ibid. l. 26 ff. Prof. Ramsay, who believes the rider on the white horse to represent
the Parthian king, writes (Letters, l.c.); The commentators who try to force a Roman
meaning on this figure say that the Roman general, when celebrating a Triumph, rode on
a white horse. This is a mistake; the general, when celebrating a Triumph, was borne
like the god, in a four-horse cart. But the horses, on occasion at least, were white. See
Plutarch, Camill. 7: ,
