Cretense πρόκορμος

Resumen

A study on the Cretan hápax prokormos, with a particular attention to the meaning of its first prepositional member, and an exam of the structure of the document on which it appears, a Gortyniam decree of manumission, of 3rd C. B.C., leads to the conclusion that in the Language of gortynian chancellery from the hellenistic period, this Cretan technical term appoints a certain official dependent on the college of kosmoi and operating as their representative, perhaps fulfilling the functions of a secretary, in certain civil acts, as in this particular case, in the release of private slaves.
