ABSTRACT:

The document published in this article was found in 1986 during excavations in the Sanctuary of the Great Gods at Samothrace. The inscription represents a dedication by the Thessalian League to the Great Gods. It provides important information about the Thessalian League in the 2nd century B.C., one of the most active periods in the League's history, and contributes to our knowledge of places in mainland Greece that sent theoroi to Samothrace.
