Document Details : Title: Ouakrianos Author(s): SEKUNDA, Nick Journal: Iranica Antiqua Volume: 32 Date: 1997 Pages: 163-164 DOI: 10.2143/IA.32.0.519268 Abstract : In 1993 a fragment of a large storage jar was published, late Hellenistic or early Imperial in date, having been discovered the previous year on archaeological excavations at Büyüktepe Höyük in eastern Anatolia. It had the name ouakrianou(in the genitive) inscribed on it in Greek cursive letters. The publishers commented that the name “appears to be a Latinized form of a native name, presumably that of the owner of the vase”. The purpose of this note is to discuss the personal name Οὐακριανος. |
