[1] This kioniskos in the British Museum is part of the Elgin collection (cf. AIUK 4.1, no. 2). On this style of monument see no. 57, with notes. Biottos son of Philoxenos appears once more in a catalogue of the tribe Leontis from the late first century BC (IG II² 2461.46). The coastal deme of Deiradiotai has been located by gravestones and a boundary marker (IG II² 2650, 5965) at modern Daskalio, east of Keratea. For more detailed discussion of the inscription see AIUK 4.6 (BM, Funerary Monuments), no. 65.
