Aristid.1.97 J., ''Or.''37(2).26; also [[Ἰουλία]] θεὰ Σεβαστὴ Π. ''IG''3.461: this name of Athena, which is guaranteed by the context in D., Aristid., Jul., Macr. Il. cc., seems to have been a distortion of the name [[Προναία]] or [[Προνᾴα]] (v. [[πρόναος]] ''1''), but [[πρόνοια]] is [[falsa lectio|f.l.]] for [[Προναία]] (or [[Προνᾴα]]) in Aeschin. (v. [[πρόναος]] 1), and D.S., Parth., Paus., Plu. Il. cc. should perhaps be corrected.
