Officials |
χρυσονόμος, chrysonomos
If he was an eponymous official (cf. next field), they must have administered their office for a year.
Most other milesian inscriptions listing Temenitai mention the chrysonomos together with a γραμματεύς, grammateus.

Eponymous officials |
The chrysonomos is mentioned in the praescript after the milesian στεφανήφορος, stephanephoros, the eponymous of the city. Therefore, he seems to be the eponymous official of the association.

Treasury/Funds |
Since the chrysonomos was the treasurer of the association, it must have had some kind of treasury.

Comments |
The inscription does not specify the name of the association but just uses the generic term Τεμενεῖται, Temeneitai, without the usual reference to certain gods. The association could therefore be identical with one of the other milesian associations of Τεμεν(ε)ῖται, Temen(e)itai, or τεμενίζοντες, temenizontes.
On groups of temenizontes, Temenitai in Miletus in general cf. CAPInv. 998.
