Abstract

An inscription from a private collection in Fethiye tells part of a court case concerning the illegal sale of land to ‘foreigners’, who are identified as Lycians. It is argued that the land belonged to Rhodes' mainland possessions bordering on Lycia, and some of the individuals named in the inscription may be identified with members of a prominent second century AD Rhodian family. Possible locations for the land at Daidala or on the island of Meis/Castellorizo are discussed.

Özet

Fethiye'deki özel bir koleksiyonda yer alan bir yazıt, Likyalılar olarak tarif edilen yabancılara yapılan gayri meşru bir arazi satışı ile ilgili olan mahkeme davasının bir bölümünden bahsetmektedir. İddia edildiǧine göre arazi Rodos'a ait olup Likya sınırındaki ana kıta arazilerini içermektedir. Yazıtta adı geçen bazı kisiler de İ.S. ikinci yüzyılda yaşamış olan önemli bir Rodos ailesinin fertleri olabilirler. Daidala'da ya da Meis/Castellorizo adasında arazinin bulunabileceǧi yer ile ilgili yapılan saptamalar tartışılmaktadır.
