The lines 1-70 of CID II 31 record the transactions from the autumn-pylaia of Argilios (358/7 BC) until the spring-pylaia of Theucharis (352/1 BC).

To this conclusion point: a) the absence of the Secretary’s name and of any clause directing the inscription and exhibition of the decree (see Koehler 1871, 352 et alii); b) according to Schwenk 1985, 142, the spelling inconsistencies; contra Foucart 1873, 131, who suggested the irregularities were the result of a still uncertain orthography and not simply the engraver’s mistakes. The text presents only a few spelling inconsistencies: ἔνποροι (l. 33) and ἐμπόροις (l. 39), τῆι βουλεῖ (ll. 6/7, 19) and τεῖ βουλεῖ (l. 12), Κιτιέων (l. 40) and Κιτιείων (l. 21); ο = ου in Λύκοργος, unless the υ dropped accidentally
