For the lit. meaning ";deposit together,"; cf. Kaibel 367.4 (iii/A.D.) ἐμαυτὴν ζῶσα συνκατέθηκα τάφῳ. From the idea of putting down the same vote or opinion with another, the verb came to be used in the middle = ";agree with,"; as in P Lond 196.15 (c. A.D. 138–161) (= II. p. 153) ̕Α ̣γ ̣ριππείνου συνκαταθεμένου Ἰουλιανὸς εἶπεν κτλ., BGU II. 388ii. 34 (ii/iii A.D.) ἐπύθετο, εἰ γνώρι [μα ] αὐτοῦ τὰ γράμματ [α, καὶ σ ]υνκαταθεμένου [Πόστου ]μος εἶπεν κτλ., and Cagnat IV. 336.30 (time of Trajan) περὶ πάντων ἃ ἐν αὐτ ]οῖς ἠξιώσατε συγκατεθέμην.
