XIII. EVALUATION

i.	Private association	Probable
	Note	The descriptive term koinon (κοινόν), and the dedicatory-honourific context, suggest a private character. The membership of the association is almost certainly drawn from the citizen body, yet it likely remains apart from the civic subdivisions of Lindos, and is therefore probably a private association.
