Block of white marble with a relief depicting one of the Samothracian deities, likely Kadmilos (455 x 28 x 16 cm). This may or may not involve a guild (see translation).
Marcus Caecilius Sotas, the coppersmith (chalkeus) from the guild (technē) (or: the coppersmith by his skill), dedicated this to the Great Gods in Samothrace.
