The date of the find we infer from the number of Oliverio's sketchbook. However real excavations of the Strategeion and its Wester neighbourhood began only in 1929, so that the find may also date somewhat later. The fragments have been brought inside the Strategeion between 1960 and 1976. The floor of this restored building is in precarious condition, so that it is not puzzling that a visitor is not able to see the two fragments of the same stone at the same time, if ever they are not placed together.

The isolated personal name at the accusative is strange; usually the accusative is used for the person whose statue is dedicated by another person mentioned at the nominative. No other line was inscribed below, so that this panel probably belonged to a larger monument.
