The magistrate names ΓΛΑΥΚΩΝ and ΕΥΘΥΚΡΑΤΗΣ place this issue within Ephesus's well-documented practice of naming grammateis and archiereis directly on civic bronze — a administrative transparency unusual in the Greek world. The office of grammateus at Ephesus carried genuine financial authority over temple accounts, particularly those tied to the Artemision, and these men were not ceremonial appointments.
The date range assigned to this type spans nearly five centuries, which reflects the honest limits of die-study rather than carelessness — Ephesian civic bronze of this magistrate formula remains poorly sequenced in the literature.
