This paper examines the drawings of demons and other figures inscribed on curse tablets that were published by A. Audollent. Some of these drawings are published in early editions; others are kept in Audollent’s manuscript archive. In the production of Roman curse tablets, the drawing of figures preceded the inscription of the curse itself, which represents the organic unity of drawings and defixiones. The figures can be classified into four major categories: gods and demons; people (e.g. charioteers); animals; and buildings and other objects.
