According to this inscription :

το επώνυμον αυτής | είναι μήνα καλούμενον πα' η[μ]ίν μεν Αρτεμισ[ι]ώνα, παρά δε Μακεδόσιν και τοι λοιποί έθνεσιν|τοις ελληνικοίς και ταις εν αυταίς πόλεσιν |Αρτεμίσιον

Here it talks about the spreading of goddess Artemis worship and it is arranged the naming of a month on her honour which for Macedonians and the rest of greek ethne will be called Artemision. :clapping:

Can anyone make a search to find a picture of it from the net????

Perseas is very difficult to find in the net any conncection between ancient Greece and Ephesus.Turkish authorities blockades any reference in the name Greece or Greek regarding the Ephesus. Ephesus is similar with Mycenean or Vergina sites regarding the Greek archaelogical treaseures.

I know they have an "Ephesus room" full of Greek inscriptions found in Ephesus, in British museum. I am looking there now to find a pic.
