There are seven treasury buildings lined side by side next to the road leading to the main entrance on the east of the temple of Men and its sanctuary in Pisidian Antioch. During the excavations carried out in these buildings in 2017 and 2018, marble votive plates as well as ceramic and marble sculptures were unearthed. While most of the votive plates were scattered inside the buildings in broken pieces, two of them were in situ in Building no. 5. Two broken slabs were found in Building no. 7 in a state that they could be completed. Dozens of votive plates were found in the temenos of the temple during the excavations. A sample with decipherable inscriptions among these plates was selected and became the subject of study together with the preserved plates found in the treasury buildings. The slabs were modeled in the form of a temple façade with a triangular pediment. On the pediment section, the crescent face was upwards; on the lower section, the god Men with crescents on his shoulders or only a crescent were depicted, which was his attribute. The votive inscriptions do not contain any information about the reason they were made; they only give information about who made the offering. Two slabs were found in treasury Building no. 5 affixed to the façade of the altar platform inside the building, on either side of the mounted god Men. While the other two were found scattered in Building no. 7; the one inside the temenos came out of the mound that was dug and piled up in previous years. The last time the treasury buildings in which these slabs were found were used was during the reign of Emperor Julianus. The slabs, dated to the third and early fourth century AD, were made to be appliqued in the early period and then had a secondary use in the late period. |
