Abstract

The corruption, about which we will go to exemplify how to do (or should be done) a methodologically correct amendment, is located at v. 4 of the poem 65 of the Anthologia Vossiana, attributed to Petronio. In this paper, Zurli restores the difficult verse, terribly ruined by the manuscript transmission (and hitherto never fixed satisfactorily); at the same time, it explains the meaning of the opening verses of this epigram – referring to the seat and to the female retinue of the Adonis cult in Byblos – which probably represent the main source of inspiration for the Concubitus of Reposianus.
