The occurrence of this NT ἅπ. εἰρ. (Acts 17:18) in a decree of the Mytilenians in honour of the Emperor Augustus, OGIS 456.10 (B.C. 27–11) καταγγελεῖς τῶν πρώτων ἀ (χ)θησο [μένων ἀγώνων, ";heralds of the first games that shall be held,"; is, as Deissmann points out (LAE p. 97), sufficient to prevent its relegation to ";eccles. writ"; (Thayer).
For καταγγελία see OGIS 319.13 (after B.C. 159) τὴν καταγγ [ε ]λίαν ἐποιήσαντο πρεπόντως.
