Name 1 Ameros Ragelos Role 1 archibomistes dedicant Name 2 Unnamed wife of Ameros Ragelos Role 2 Dedication made on behalf of wife Notes The exact function of an 'archibomistes' is unclear, although its does not appear to be confined to a single cult or deity; this title appears in inscriptions at Gerasa associated with Pakeiades and Hera, and with Apollo (Gatier 1988, 151, no.5). Gatier (1988, 152-154) argues that the archibomistes was involved in sacrifice, perhaps serving different functions for different gods, while [Lichtenberger: βωμός ("altar") suggests that Pakeidas was depicted as an altar]. The title appears in at least two other inscriptions from Gerasa in addition to the one presented here (Gatier 1988, 151-154, nos.5-6). Selected Bibliography Gatier, P.-L. 1988.

Diplomatic Constituted From Jones 1928 and Welles 1938 Translation Constituted From Jones 1928 and Welles 1938 Notes These two blocks were found built into the wall of the Nymphaeum, which dates to 190 CE. As the dedicatory inscription is dated to 145/146 CE (in the local era=208; but cf. Welles 1938, 386), the base and associated statues were apparently only on display for half a century before being reused. Jones (1985, 158) restores ΔΕΟC ΗΛΙΟΥ as the first deity in the inscription. Theos Arabikos is mentioned in several other Gerasene inscriptions (Welles 1938, 384-386 nos.19-22); Theos Arabikos may be associated with the Arab deity Dusares, or perhaps with the Gerasene god Pakeidas (Welles 1938, 385).
