Comment: NB: Father and son have the same name and were both victorious at festivals: the son presumably in the musical disicplines; the father in unknown disciplines. In Robert, Hellenica XI – XII, 478, Markos Aurelios Thelymitres is recorded as having been involved in the building of the proskenion of the theatre at Miletus. However it is uncertain in which specific discipline he was active. Also his specific victories are unknown. According to Farrington (2012), this athlete must have been active somewhere between c. 161 and c. 200. According to Weir (2004), both father and son were involved in the province's imperial cult, and related to members of the senatorial order. Because the inscription is restored to π[εριοδονείκου], but heavily restored the periodos games are listed with a questionmark. -PS
