notes: this inscription was set to have casts made as early as January 1822 (correspondence between C. D. Rauch and K. A. Böttiger), and one cast was eventually sent to the Königlichen Academie der Wissenschaften, home of the Corpus Inscriptionum Graecarum (CIG). Without provenience, this votive never found its way into Mommsen's Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum (CIL).
