Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this journal, V. Sauer and E. Olshausen (Sauer - Olshausen, Gephyra, 29, 2025, 56 no. 2) have recently published an interesting Imperial-period dedication (“Votiv- oder Weihinschrift eines Altar”) to a deity which they were not able to identify. Following an attempt to elucidate the text, a brief discussion of the epithet of Zeus revealed by this inscription is offered. This is Theopomenos (Θεοπομηνός), a toponymic epithet which points to an ancient place name Θεοπόμα (Theopoma) or Θεοπόμη (Theopome). Etymologically, this can be thought to have been formed from a compound word—θεός + πόμα = “Divine Drink (of Water)”?—which in turn could perhaps be identified with a source of fresh water near the findspot of the inscription, at Ayvalı near Vezirköprü, Samsun İli, that is to say in the region of Neoklaudiopolis. The locality Theopoma / Theopome and its probable divine spring was most likely connected to the broader tributary-system of the Halys/Kızılırmak river which flows nearby.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
