Local interaction |
If the koinon Mareotou (l. 6: CAPInv. 1864) to which this dedication is made is not the same synodos Herakleou Kallinikou kai Nemeseos, then it would appear that we have an indication of an interaction between two associations in the community.

Note |
Given the similarities between this form of dedication and others (see Łajtar 1992), it is probable that this is a private association.
