Some changes have been brought to this edition, thanks to the photograph now available.

At line 2, we prefer to read personal names rather that Reynolds' alternative suggestion of the formula meaning 'for the sake of friendship', which is attested much later. The last preserved letter nu might be the beginning of νέος, rather than the numeral 50 giving the age (as suggested by [...] 2013.480), because this feature is also later.

At line 3, Reynolds could see no letter after the supposed phi, which is only a flat circle. The photograph now confirms this view.

Although found in the sanctuary of Demeter and Kore, this stone has certainly been brought there from elsewhere. Rather than a list of officials of some kind related to the sanctuary, it might be a funerary stele brought from the nearby West Necropolis. Alternatively, given the queer cutting technique, the names were perhaps graffiti appended on a monument. The gymnasium, in the agora quarter, might be the original place as well.
