520 _aA new dedication to the Artemisiac triad in Eretria The present publishes an inscribed marble base, found reused in the pavement of the temple for the imperial cult at Eretria in Euboea. The double inscription on the front shows that the base supported two bronze statues honouring members of an Eretrian family, and was dedicated to the triad, Artemis, Apollo and Leto. Palaeography and the typology of the base, which has parallels in Central Greece, and the political and economic position of Eretria in the late Hellenistic period, allow to propose a date in the last years of the 2nd century or earliest 1st century. This type of dedication to the divine triad is well known from other inscriptions found in the neighbourhood of the supposed sanctuary of Artemis at Amarynthos, east of Eretria. The new base, found in the city, and the fact that Artemis is named first, suggest that the monument stood originally in a sanctuary dedicated to Artemis within the city.
