The deity named Ἄναξ was identified with Aristeus by Santucci. Dobias-Lalou's proposal to identify him with Castor ( Dobias-Lalou, 2006 Dobias-Lalou, C., 2006, Le héros Dioscure à Apollonia de Cyrénaïque, in E. Fabbricotti, O. Menozzi (eds.), Cirenaica: studi, scavi e scoperte: atti del X Convegno di Archeologia Cirenaica, Chieti 24-26 Novembre 2003, BAR international series1488, Oxford, 85-96 - see in bibliography , pp. 94-95; SEG Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum, Leiden, then Amsterdam, 1923-1971, then 1979- - see in bibliography , 56.2024) is now obsolete (see Dobias-Lalou, 2016 Dobias-Lalou, C., 2016, D'un prétendu héros Dioscure aux défunts héroïsés, Libya Antiqua (LibAnt)n.s. 9, 163-176 - see in bibliography , p. 171).
The personal name has no initial aspirate in this archaic spelling. Dobias-Lalou, Bulletin Épigraphique Dobias-Lalou, C.Bulletin Épigraphique in Études Grecques (REG)1987- - see in bibliography , 1999.613 mentioned a possible analysis as a compound made from Εὐ- and -ρήμων, from a series defined by Bechtel, 1917 Bechtel, F., 1917, Die historischen Personennamen des Griechischen bis zur Kaiserzeit, Halle - see in bibliography , p. 394. However, as the dialect shows a tendency for psilosis , it might also be the well known name Εὑρήμων.
