A sizeable part of the epigraphic record of the North Lycian city of Balboura concerns the erection of statues honouring athletics victors of the Antoninia Meleagria, a “musical” festival founded A.D. 158–161 by the local notable Meleager, the subject of J. J. Coulton, N. P. Milner, A. T. Reyes, “Balboura Survey: Onesimos and Meleager Part II”, AS XXXIX (1989) 41–60. In this paper the whole series of 12 Meleagria bases is published, five for the first time, together with other inscriptions demonstrating the victors' membership of the leading families of Balboura, with one possible exception ( Inscr. 11 ). The Meleagria bases are presented in chronological order, and are referred to by the same numbers as the inscriptions they carry. The tops and front elevations of the better-preserved ones are shown on Fig. 2
