In July 1985, the opportunity was afforded to participate in a Surface Survey at the Roman Colony of Cremna in Pisidia. Coincidentally, 1985 marked the centenary of the visit there by the first traveller to publish a still useful site plan. One building only has been excavated at Cremna (Pl. VII, a ). As a result of the discovery by local villagers of several statues during illegal digging at the site, a team led by Professor Jale İnan of the University of Istanbul fully cleared this building in a short season during 1970. Professor İnan has provided an admirable preliminary report of the building and of the ten statues, and Professor Bean undertook publication of the inscriptions found in the building, mostly statue bases and mostly in Greek. Bean had to work from copies, squeezes and photographs: some improvements to his versions are offered below. Because his publication of these texts appeared while SEG was in abeyance, they were picked up only by J. and L. Robert in Bulletin épigraphique . So although there is no inscription here of outstanding individual importance it seemed worthwhile to republish them all here in a more accurate form and with more detailed information. There are three texts not published by Bean (nos. 3, 4 and 9 below). Fuller texts than those given by him have been provided in two cases (nos. 7 and 8 below)
