XII. NOTES

i. Comments Only broken names (from patronyms) are preserved, sometimes followed by the mentions ἱερεύς, hiereus (four times: I.Histriae 195, ll. 1, 4, 5, 6), ἱέρ(ε)ια, hier(e)ia (two times: I.Histriae 195, ll. 8, 10), and φιλ]ότειμος, phil]oteimos (one time: I.Histriae 195, l. 9).

XIII. EVALUATION

i. Private association Possible
Note The only reason to suspect in this album the list of the members of an association is the presence of the priests and priestesses as well as of a φιλ]ότειμος, phil]oteimos. Nothing to say about the character of the association. The alternative explanation would be that we have to do with a simple list of priests and priestesses.
