There is something unclear in Morelli's explanations about the provenance. He writes that the stone was found East of the Greek Theatre and had been brought in 1960 inside the Sanctuary of Apollo. However it stood in 1983 (and still en 2001) East of the Greek theatre in vicinity of IGCyr097900.

The inscription on this base is made of two parts: textpart i) is a series of captions corresponding to the statues standing above and providing their names at the nominative; textpart ii) is the dedication formula. Insisting on the lost block at left, [...] completes the overview of the monument that was described at [...].

The name of the woman at column b) is highlighted by the larger dimension of the letters and its central position. In correspondance with the multiple holes on top, it is very plausible that her statue stood in the middle and that smaller statues stood at both sides, the mention at left being cut across the two blocks. Symmetrically, a man's statue whould have stood in the middle of the left block and the statue of another child at far left.

The damaged names may be fully or partly restituted: the father's name at column b) is easy to complete as Χαριείδης and the ending of the father's name at column a) was probably the same. If so, the mother would have been surrounded by her two children, while her husband would be the dedicant. For the daughter's name (c) Rosamilia's Aristoxena is very plausible, both for the number of letters and for the relation with the mother's name. The reverse name Ξεναρίστα is known from IGCyr024200.

Stasis, the father's name of Aristobola, is also well represented in IGCyr097900 and shows probably some relation between the two families. It is a similar base, placed in the vicinity and offering the same use of the nominative case of the persons featured upon it, followed by a full sentence mentioning the dedicant. However, only this one is dedicated as a tithe and on behalf of telesphoria. Being somewhat later than the other and somewhat less spectacular, the present base was probably modelled on the former.
