The names of Polychronios (Polychronios 6) and Sisinnios (Sissinios 37) occur on the edge of remains, probably of a baptismal font, found in the old Christian basilica in the centre of Sozopolis (Sozopol, near Burgas, in Bulgaria); the text reads: ὑπὲρ εὐχῖς κ() σοτερίας Πολυχρονίου κ() Σισινίου+: Beshevliev, Spätgr. u. spätlat. Inschr. Bulg., no. 181a. The inscription is dateable to the eighth or ninth century. The two men were perhaps wealthy citizens of Sozopolis (possibly brothers) who donated the font.
