Epigrapher, active 1984–2001.
Life and work
- 1991Supplied restitutions of a Christian silver amulet (from Cyprus, bought 1874, Froehner's reading) in the Froehner material, and read Hellmann's manuscript.
- from 1996Noticed that the Salamis funerary epigram for Phileas (Corpus no. 192 = Peek, Griech. Vers-Inschriften 842), long of unknown whereabouts, is still in Gladstone's old collection at Hawarden Castle, Wales; Cesnola had given it to Gladstone before the sales.
