Athena, maybe.
I think Macedonian or Thracian (or that area), not Sicilian or Anatolian, but the reverse is very difficult to make out.
I lack the patience to save up my coin money, but these are the most costly: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] And these weren’t cheap: [ATTACH]...
What country?
Hmmm. I wish I had known sooner. I’m only about an hour and a half away. I’ll have to check-in with the wife and see if she wouldn’t mind me...
Yes, if minor edits you can do that when I send you the proofs. If more than that, email me and I’ll send you the “live” version of the paper...

If you are interested in the iconography the book dedicates the first 100 pages to it (and those are dense, double column 10pt font pages), so it...
One of things I like about CT is the “like” button, precisely because it is a convenient way for someone with nothing meaningful to add to express...

Separate names with a comma.
