Unearthed in 1935 by Pierre Devambez at the Sanctuary of Sinuri near Mylasa, this marble block has since been lost and is known only through drawings. It appears to be a fragmentary list of names (including Adymδ) that was likely never completed.

Discovered in 1935 by Louis Robert, this white marble stele was found at the Sanctuary of Sinuri. Efforts to relocate the stone in later years were unsuccessful, and it is currently considered lost. It features a bilingual Carian-Greek decree by the satraps Idrieus and Ada (c. 351–344 BC) granting tax exemptions to a local individual or group. Another stele fragment with a Greek inscription found at Sinuri (Robert 1945 no. 75) might belong to the top section of this stele.
