It is posted here both to help other researchers by informing them of the book's contents and to encourage them to do the same with their own indexes.

The epigram, comprised of four elegiac couplets, was originally inscribed in a Boeotian script dating c. 525-475 B.C.E. (Text A) and then in the fourth century B.C.E., perhaps after the refoundation of Thebes in 315 B.C.E., reinscribed in a perpendicular orientation in Ionic script (Text B) (Papazarkadas 2014, 246; see also Papazarkadas's note in SEG). Neither text is fully preserved, both because of the condition of the stone and because the right half of Text A and end of Text B continued onto another stone, but the Ionic version makes possible multiple restorations of the more complete Boeotian text. (M. Tentori Montalto, who examined the stone in 2017, has instead dated Text A to the end of the 6th century B.C.E.: see Tentori Montalto 2019, 1-2.) 3 Epigraphical evidence now reveals that the name that has come down to us in literature should be aspirated, and thus is more properly written "Apollo Hismenios" (see Tentori Montalto 2018, 132n.22, citing BE 2015, 303, 304, 306), but I am retaining the traditional spelling of the god's name and sanctuary (i.e., the Ismeneion). For the Ismeneion and its oracle, see Schachter 1981-94, I:77-85, and for its remains and excavation history, see Aravantinos 2017, 223-226. A joint project of Bucknell University and the local Ephorate has recently fi nished a multi-year program of active excavation at the Ismeneion and is in the process of publishing the results. 4 It has also been argued by M. Simonton that Pindar, a Theban, also saw this inscription and Croesus's gift, and alludes to them in his 1st Pythian Ode when he comments that οὐ φθίνει Κροίσου φιλόφρων ἀρετά, which he translates as "The friendly-minded generosity of Croesus does not fade" (Pind., Pyth. 1.94; see Simonton 2020, 14-15). 5 Thonemann 2016; cf. BE 2017, 260. This article was an expanded and more technical treatment of the subject than was possible in Thonemann 2014, the fi rst published response to Papazarkadas's article. 6 Porciani 2016; see also EBGR 2017, 87 and BE 2017, 259. The epigram had also been discussed briefl y by A. Yu. Mozhajsky as part of a topographical study of Archaic Thebes two years earlier (Mozhajsky 2014, 74).

The first survey, covering publications from 2009 to 2011, had appeared in 2013, with my section on inscriptions pertinent to the study of Roman religion that were edited or reedited in epigraphical corpora to be found at pp. 323-328. Since at this point it appears that there will not be a second "Forschungsbericht," and not wanting my work to be wasted, I am providing my unpublished contribution in the hope that, even after so long, it will prove useful to colleagues working in this area. (I do so with the approval of one of the journal's editors.)
