XII. NOTES

i. Comments Payment made to the grapheion for the preparation of a charter of a synodos of Psosneus the oil maker (elaiourgos); payment is in kind: 4 kotylai of oil. It is possible that the synodos was an association of elaiourgoi.
Psosneus was likely the leader of the association.

XIII. EVALUATION

i. Private association Certain
Note The context alone, along with the fact that the creation of the charter is being dealt with privately (by all accounts) by an individual who is a member of the association (perhaps the leading official?) suggests that this is a private association.
