      APGRD Notes
                      Ameinias came third in this competition. The inscription notes that he was still an ephebe when selected. The actor was Asclepiodorus. The winning play was Philippides’ Mustis (The Initiate) other new comic plays were by Nicostratus (title unknown), the Pankratiastes probably by Theophilus and a play called Paidion (The Baby) by an unknown author. A revival of Anaxandrides’ Thesauros was also performed. See,  G. M. Sifakis, Studies in the History of Hellenistic Drama, (London: Athlone Press, 1967), p. 25. For the actor, see I.E. Stephanis, Dionysiakoi Technitai: Symboles stên prosôpographia tou theatrou kai tês mousikês tôn archaiôn Hellênôn (Heraklion: University of Crete, 1988), no. 458, and P. Ghiron-Bistagne, Recherches sur les acteurs dans la Grèce antique (Paris : Les Belles Lettres, 1976), p. 40.
