Novità epigrafiche da Hierapolis di Frigia
Abstract
Gli scavi della Missione Archeologica Italiana a Hierapolis di Frigia (Pamukka-le) in Turchia si sono concentrati soprattutto in due aree: quella sacra centrale che comprende il santuario di Apollo e l'adiacente Ploutonion ricordato da molte fonti letterarie antiche e quella posta alle pendici delle colline a nord est della città dove fu costruita una chiesa che incorporava una tomba di I secolo d.C.; quest'ultima fu venerata a partire dal II secolo d.C. come quella dell'apostolo Filippo. Il presente articolo illustra un documento dal santurio di Apollo riguardante suppliche di schiavi e un titulus pictus dalla chiesa di San Filippo.
In recent times the excavations of the Italian Archaelogical Mission in Hierapolis of Phrygia (Pamukkale -Turkey) have focused on two main areas: the central sacred area, including the temenos of Apollo and the adjacent Plutoni-um, attested by several ancient literary souces; and the the slopes of the hill that bordered the urban centre to the east, where a church was built, incorporating a first century CE tomb. From the second century CE onwards the tomb was venerated as that of the Apostle Philip. The present article illustrates a document from the temple of Apollo, concerning supplications of slaves, and a titulus pictus from the church of Saint Philip.
