Slab of limestone (140-141 x 52 x 20cm; letter height: 6 cm). Found at Kerch, now in Museum of History town of Kerch (inv. КЛ-1147). The name Monochordos is not attested elsewhere in the PHI database and is likely a local (Sarmatian [?]) name.
. . . Theoteimos the goodness-loving official (philagathos), Demetrios the secretary (grammateus), and the rest of the society-members (thieseitai = thiasitai) set this up in memory of Papas son of Demetrios and grandson of Monochordos.
