Death came seeking Géza Alföldy at the height of his productivity at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens. It was a death similar to the one that came to Scipio in Africa, as Cicero recalls in De amicitia (3, 112): "Quam ob rem vita quidem talis fuit vel fortuna vel gloria ut nihil posset accedere, moriendi autem sensu celeritas abstulit". With him vanishes one of the leading representatives of scientific research in the 20th and early 21st centuries in the field of the ancient Roman history, as well as one of the best, if not the best, epigraphists of our day.
