The types are appropriatefor the Thracian royal series, but the lack of any identifying inscription makes it difficult to ascribe to a specific king.
Some references call the cup a kotyle, suggesting a punning reference to the king's name. Youroukova identifies it as a slightly different vessel known as a kypsele, a symbol of the mint city, Kypsela in Thrace.
