| Summary: | In this posthumous contribution the author discusses the nature
of Lykiarkheia, which has long been subject to discussion by
several scholars. The position of author in this respect is that the period of
the Lykiarkheia begins with the office of Grammateia,
continued with the office of Arkhierosyne and that it was held
for life only as an honorary title, as has been previously indicated by the
author (Şahin 2006; Şahin 2012). The author argues the office of the Grammateus has
been repeatedly ignored in recent studies, and presents here a much more
detailed investigation concerning this issue, countering the common opinion on
this matter, most recently reiterated by D. Reitzenstein (2011).Note of thr
translator: I decided to translate this article because it was his last
contribution which was lying on his table in his home, full of notes written on
it, with the permission of his wife, Prof. Dr. N. Eda Akyürek Şahin. Maybe he
would have added more information to it, but this cannot now be known, and the
Turkish manuscript seemed to be completed and almost ready for publication. |
