Abstract

Possibly a Late Antique ekphrastic exercise, the nineteen stylopinakia representing mythological scenes from the temple of the Attalid queen Apollonis of Cyzicus that are transmitted by AP. 3 make any attempt at interpretation difficult, since they lack any literary or archaeological parallel. A review of the evidence and the terminology contained in the lemmata accompanying the epigrams accommodates a reconstruction of the stylopinakia - perhaps located on the column bases, metopes arranged in a frieze, or ephemeral elements -As forming a n inside the cella, possibly alternating with other kinds of decoration.
