Bounas 1 was a Apo hypaton; owner of a seal dateable to the sixth or seventh century: Schlumberger, Sig., p. 478, no. 8 (facsimile). Obv.: +Θε - οτοκ - ε βοη - θη.Rev.: Βουν - α απο - υπατ - ων. The name is apparently unique; possibly the first line of the reverse of the seal (which is broken) is missing, and if so the name Tribounas (attested on seals, see PLRE III, p. 1341) might be restored (reading, perhaps [+Τρι] - βουν - α απο - υπατ - ων). However the facsimile suggests that this is barely possible.
