Summary

By the end of 1987 three successive seasons had been spent by a team co-directed by Dr. S. Mitchell and Professor M. Waelkens at the Augustan colony of Cremna, and two (plus a brief initial season in 1985) at Pisidia's chief city in Roman Imperial times, Sagalassos. The permit for a surface survey has provided the opportunity to locate and check a considerable percentage of the texts previously known. It has also made possible the discovery of several new inscriptions from these sites and their territory. Two new milestones are presented here, one pertaining to each city.In early August 1987, on the last evening of my stay with the team working at Sagalassos, I was taken by two men from Aǧlasun 4 km. along the Aǧlasun–Isparta road. Turning right into a lane, after some 300 m. we came to a small bridge over a stream. Nearby was a large cylindrical stone (Pl. XVII(a)) which had recently been recovered from the stream during excavations for another bridge.
