		ID 2 442 (179 BC) one of a group of inventories toward the end of the period of Independence that are virtually verbatim copies of each other (except for acquisitions).
		They are very carelessly written and their lettering is very small, but they keep the same order and much the same phrasing and so one can get a good idea of the treasures of the period in spite of the fragmentary remains of the inventories.
		Bruneau (CDH 226) notes the "modification radicale" of the treasure between 156 BC (ID 1417) and 146 BC (ID 1442): the single statue is replaced by two, the pinaxes dedicated by Autokles' sons become anonymous; some objects are omitted; others are added.
