Source(s) provenance |
Jewish cemetery of Thessalonike. The suggestion that the monument may have been originately set up at Philippi (due to the Thracian name of the deceased) is unwarranted.

Leadership |
On the basis of the name of the group, L. Nonios is the leader of the association, without bearing any relevant title.

Treasury/Funds |
The phrase ἐκ τῶν ἰδίων, ek ton idion (l. 5), at the end of the text usually means that the dedicant of the monument paid for it from his or her own money. If the phrase is used here literally, it probably means that the association did not even have common funds and the members had to proceed to individual contributions even for the most common task of any association, that is, paying for the funerary monuments of its members.

Status |
The deceased bears a typical Thracian name and patronym.

Note |
Self-identification as members and a leader assure the private nature of the group, whose nature remains uncertain.
