Endnote 21 – Jewish Funerary Inscriptions—Most Are in Greek

Richard Lattimore, Themes in Greek and Latin Epitaphs (Urbana: Illinois Univ. Press, 1942), pp. 192–194, gives abundant references. Of special importance is the study by M. Alexiou and P. Dronke, “The Lament of Jephtha’s Daughter: Themes, Traditions, Originality,” Studi Medievali (3rd ser.) 12 (1971), pp. 819–863, esp. pp. 832–837 on funerary inscriptions.
