[As] is needful I multiplied the 100 loads x 30 drachmai = 3000; from this subtract the given 2500 drachmai; remainder, 500 drachmai. And subtract the 10 drachmai from the 30 drachmai; remainder [20]. I took 1/20 of the remainder, 500 drachmai, = 24 with remainder of 20; and subtract the 20 drachmai from the 30 drachmai; remainder 10 of the original. And one operates with 20 because it is necessary to subtract the 10 drachmai from 30; remainder, 20 once = 20; take besides 20 (since I took 1/20 of the 500 drachmai and it was 24 with remainder of 20), = 40; take 1/10 of this (because you have subtracted 20 drachmai from 30 drachmai and 10 were left), = 4; = 1, since [4 x 1] = 4, for [I took 1/4] of [4]; and subtract 1 from 24 (since I took 1/20 of the [remainder], 500 drachmai, and it was [24 with remainder of 20]); 23 is left; so many are the loads at [10] drachmai, = 230 drachmai.

So much they pay for 60 artabai over the distance of 3 schoeni 20 stadia. The freight on [100 artabai] for 3 schoeni is 3 1/2 [artabai]; according to schedule there is a freight charge of 60 artabai; how many artabai will be delivered over a distance of 4 schoeni?

The freight on 100 artabai is 5 artabai; what is the freight on the whole principal amount of 1000 artabai?

As is needful, reduce the [2 1/2 schoenia to] halves, = 5; and the 20 arourai to halves, = 40; of which 1/5 = 8; this is the length. Proof: Multiply the 2 1/2 schoenia of the width x [the 8] of the length [and it will be] 20. [- - -] (Frg.

The [monthly] interest [on 100 drachmai] is 2 drachmai 3 obols; let 4 months pass, and the principal be 200 drachmai; what is the interest? [Multiply] the 2 drachmai 3 obols into the [4] months = 10; into 200 = 2000, of which 1/100 = 20; so much is the interest.

Before all things I pray for your health and prosperity. I wish you to know that I sent you three letters this month. I have received in full the monthly allowances which you sent to me by Iulius and a basket of olives by the lad of Iulius. I wish you to know that another male child has been born to me, whose name is Agathos Daimon. The gods willing, if I find an opportunity of putting my plan into effect I am coming to you with letters. I wish you to know that it is now three months since I came to Pselkis, and I have not yet found an opportunity to come to you. I was afraid to come just now because they say: that the prefect is on the road, lest he take the letters from me and send me back to the troops, and I incur the expense in vain. But I wish you to know that if another two months pass and I do not come to you before the month Hathyr I have eighteen more months of sitting ingarrison until I enter Pselkis again and come to you. All those who come will bear witness to you how I seek daily to come. If you wish to see me a little, I wish it greatly and pray daily to the gods that they may quickly give me a good chance to come. Everything in the army runs with the favorable chance. If I have the opportunity I am coming to you. Take care of my children's pigs for me so that if my children come they may find them. At the next opportunity please send to Ioulas, the son of Iulius, whatever allowance you can, and let him be as a son of mine, even as you love me and I [love] my children. If his brother is at leisure send him to me at once so that I may send my children and their mother to you by him. [Send] me an extra jar of olives for a friend of mine; do not fail to [do] so. You know that whatever you give to Iulius he brings me, which he indeed promised me to do. Write to me [whatever] he does. Salute Sokmenios and his children and [. . .] and Sabinus and Thaisas and her children and my brothers and my sister Tabenka and her husband and her relations-in-law. And write to me if she has had a child. Salute Tasokmenis, my lady sister, and Sambas and Soueris and her [children] and Sambous and all the relations and friends, [each by name]. Gemella salutes you all, as do Didymarion and the [newly-born] Agathos Daimon and Epiktetos. Salute Gemellus [and . . .] the wife of [. . .]lianus. And it was no great matter [- - -].

I received your letter in which you asked me to put aside 100 artabs of the wheat which we have on board and to sell the rest at the highest price we can get. Now as for reserving the corn, know that it is no longer possible. For not being aware that you would be wanting it, we sold the whole cargo of wheat in the harbor over against Aphroditopolis, through Ptolemaios the epistates serving under Archibiades, a total of 241 artabs at 7 artabs for each gold stater; and we gave the purchasers 3 artabs extra on every hundred to balance the incidental expenses. Charmos has brought me a message to give Pyrrhichos money for the purchase of hides at Herakleopolis. Know then that we have not so much money that we can give Pyrrhichos enough for that purpose. For out of the price of the corn Ptolemaios is still owing us 288 drachmai, about which I am bringing you a letter of guarantee to the effect that we are to receive them on the 10th of Mecheir, and I have 400 drachmai in hand. Be kind enough then to write and tell me where I am to obtain the money to give him and whether we are to send Styrax with him in order that we may keep an eye on the prices; for we know him to be reliable in such affairs. We have brought down also the lots of wine that were at Ptolemais. Send me word where I am to obtain corn for Ammonios the miller and how much I am to give him for the preparation of flour. We have also given Pyrrhichos 10 drachmai for travelling expenses. Farewell. Year 29, Mecheir 5. (Verso) To Zenon. (2nd hand: docket) Year 29, Peritios embolimos 6.

And that Harmiysis also called Belles, son of Harmiysis, has obtained by lot the sole right to sell salt and gypsum in the village of Tristomos also called Boukolos, for which he shall contribute, apart from the share of the public taxes which falls to him, five additional drachmai in silver; upon condition that they shall sell the good salt at the rate of two and one-half obols, the light salt at two obols, and the lighter salt at one and one-half obol, by our measure or that of the warehouse. And if anyone shall sell at a lower price than these, let him be fined eight drachmai in silver for the common fund and the same for the public treasury; and if any of them shall be found to have sold more than a stater's worth of salt to a merchant, let him be fined eight drachmai in silver for the common fund and the same for the public treasury; but if the merchant shall intend to buy more than four drachmai's worth, all must sell to him jointly. And if anyone shall bring in gypsum and shall intend to sell it outside, it must be left on the premises of Orseus, son of Harmiysis, until he takes it outside and sells it. It is a condition that they shall drink regularly on the 25th of each month each one a chous of beer . . . in the village one drachme, outside four drachmai, and in the metropolis eight drachmai. But if anyone is in default and fails to satisfy any of the public obligations, or any of the claims that shall be made against him, it shall be permissible for the same Apynchis to arrest him in the main street or in his house or in the field, and to hand him over as aforesaid.

Before everything I pray for your health and that also of all your family. I have to inform you, brother, that Tiberinus has found our brother Sempronius with the tunic <or: cuirass?> (kithonion) which you sent him in a boat making for Taposiris, one day's journey from Alexandria. He was carrying bread to the soldiers there. Don't think that he went off on this business just at random; he chose the right time; it is a piece of luck that he is going. For your information, I gave this instruction straight away to Tiberinus: "Give me the girdle, and I'll take it and let Celer know." So I have to inform you, I have taken charge of it till you arrive in good health. Do please let me know if there is anything you need here, and I will send it at once. Greetings to all our family individually. All my family send individual greetings to all yours. I pray for your health and the best of luck.

I) [- - -] . . . Of the fore parts the sphere of the Sun [should be considered] first, for [Saturn and the Sun have] the smallest variation in latitude; it is, then, in size 2 1/2°, that is, 150', for the degree contains 60'; the moon's is 6°, or 360'; that of Saturn 10°, or 600'; that of Jupiter 13° 45'; next, Mercury's sphere is 21° 15' or 1275'; and the sphere of Mars is 42°, or 2520'. The sphere of Venus is the largest, exceeding the breadth of the circle of the zodiac, in which the divinity is exalted and depressed; her sphere, then, is 48° or 2880'. Such is the circuit of their orbits; and by this . . . (Col. II) [- - -] . . . they come to apogee and have least apparent motion. Then standing still they begin to turn back . . . to the eye seeming . . . and they seem to move (the faster?) by as much as they are seen to . . ., and with accelerated movement . . . left behind by the Sun on their downward circuit they reach their own spheres. After this they come to perigee and have their greatest apparent motion. Thus the height and the breadth of their epicycles are the cause of the anomaly in their course, for their daily motion is always the same, that of the Sun 59' 8'' 16''', of the Moon 13 whole degrees and 10', of Saturn 2', of Jupiter 5', of Mars 32', and of Venus and Mercury the same as the Sun. These latter two, however, differ from the Sun by reason of their epicycles; for though they have a daily motion that is equal to the Sun's their movement in height and in breadth is not equal to his; but when they get farther south or farther north than the Sun they seem to make retrogressions, or they are passed by the Sun and stand fixed; or they are depressed and run ahead of the Sun. At such times Venus seems to run 5' {5'} <read: 35'>, so as to move more swiftly than the Sun, and Mercury 3° 6', that is, 186'. Since such is their order, [one may] in accordance with the epicycles of each one of them select a portion and by those measures assign it to each, both from the forward parts of the image and from the backward parts. Of the 2880' of Venus, then, one-third is 960' . . . (Col. III) [- - -] . . . Next in order, of the 6 1/2° of the Moon, one-third is 2 1/6°, that is, 130'; accordingly at this one hundred thirtieth point the must mark out the Moon's portion. It will extend to the tip of the chin. The visage is the most wonderful part of the image. Thus the whole head is the tabernacle of the Sun and the Moon, but he controls the faculty of knowledge, and she that of change and of affection; and from Mercury comes the faculty of thought, but from the Sum the directive faculty; but the faculty of interpretation is attached to the portion of the Moon, tongue, mouth and speech. For this reason this section is related to each of the sectae and is not far removed from the leader, the Sun. Accordingly, as in man the face is most remarkable for its changes and the affections that occur to it, so the Moon, in the universe, is remarkable for its changes of colors and for its illuminations and emanations. The Moon alone aids the . . . accepting . . . ten times in the course of the year . . . and paying back its waxings and wanings through a period of 28 days . . . And the face is the grace . . . and the Sun . . . the changes most proper to it . . . (Col. IV) [- - -] . . . The epicycle of Jupiter measures 13° 45', which is 825', of which one-third is 275'. Accordingly at the two hundred seventy-fifth point we must mark off the portion of Jupiter. It includes the breast as far as the stomach and the liver, in which reside fire, the mental faculty, and the appetitive faculty because the conversion into blood of the food which is introduced into the body is performed by the liver. It is for just this reason that the faculty of command is assigned to this portion; for truly the leader takes forethought for the state as the liver does for the body. If indeed the region of the liver becomes diseased, the whole body immediately becomes jaundiced or dropsical and like a corpse, because the blood is not properly managed. Therefore such things come to mankind from Jupiter, and therefore also the omens are observed in the livers of the victims by those who perform sacrifices, and appetites for food and sexual intercourse come from the liver. For from its entrance a broad vessel reaches to the seminal regions, and thus, of the food, a part is made into blood and distributed to the veins and part is divided off into that vessel and becomes semen. For this reason the testicles are on either side. For the sake of this also . . . applied to Zeus the epither "of many offspring"; and within . . . Next in order the epicycle of Mercury measures 21° 15', or 1275'; one-third of the epicycle is 425'. Accordingly at the four hundred twenty-fifth point we must mark off the portion of Mercury . . . (Col. V) [- - -] . . . And next the epicycle of Mars measures 42° or 2520', one-third of which is 840'; so at the eight hundred fortieth point we must mark off the portion of Mars. t will include the hands from the wrists, the pubes, the genital organs, the thighs and knees, and will end at the shins. For this reason the principle of the seed is naturally aroused in the period of Mars, who returns to his original position every 15 years; so at that time boys show signs of manhood, their voices break and they show the outward signs of puberty according to the times which the fates may hold for them; for in some cases they will be found to bring it about in 12 years, in some in 13, in some in 14, in some in 15, and in some in 16 or a little more; for these things come about in consequence of the ascensions of the Sun. From Mars indeed come manhood and the impulse to arms, from about the fifteenth year; for this reason boys are given the Olympic crown even in the twelfth year, in the zodiacal period of Jupiter, but they do not bear arms unless the period of Mars, 15 years, has been fulfilled. Castrations, the cutting off of the genital organs, the changes of women, and abortions come from Mars; and further, both incontinence and virginity are within his province, when he is moved in a certain way - about which things I have spoken in the book on the influences of the stars. Again, the breaking of thighs, the wrenching of knees, and the bruising and wounding of the shins are from Mars. The last epicycle, which brings to an end the forward parts of the image, is that of Venus, measuring 48° or 2880', and one-third of this is 960'. The portion of Venus is from the shins to the toe nails . . . (Col. VI) [- - -] . . . the 840' are also slavish . . . below this we must assign 50' to the Sun as his portion. It will reach to the neck, which portion we assigned to the Sun as leader and master; then are assigned . . . fostered by the Sun somewhat in this manner; for these affections are from above. But at 130' we must mark off the portion of the Moon; and it will include the calves; and somehow, whenever we see a noteworthy face, we go around and straightway see the calf of the leg, since naturally the portion of the Moon which is akin to it leads us all to this. Afflictions, fractures, and amputations of the legs come about through the Moon's influence. Then to 200' is the portion of Saturn, the back of the knees and extremities of the hams of ever wearied men. Then to 275' is the portion of Jupiter; the hams; hence beloved boys and those who are well adapted for the practice are led to these courses through the influence of Jupiter; Ganymede serves to express this in mythology for those whose courses are natural.. And at 425' we must mark off the portion of Mercury; it will include the buttocks to the hip-joints and a little higher. This region also aids the belly and is impure. Accordingly when people have a base disease and suffer unnaturally, if it be against their will and consent, then it will be found that in the genitures of these men Venus is injured in these daemonic degrees of Mercury; but if it is by their own devices the star of Mercury will be found injured in these same degrees. The rest belongs to Mars as far as the middle of the neck; for the neck is divided; at that point the 840' ends. For the whole head belongs to the Sun and the Moon, but of the neck the forward part belongs to Saturn and the back to Mars; for this reason . . . bear on their backs. (Col. VII) [- - -] . . . as far as the last degree of Aries increasing . . . if it be found . . . from the first degree of Leo. Count the degrees until you come to the degree of the star and take one-third of the number, and if it is less than 16, the star is in dominant degrees, but if more than what they are up to Capricornus and away from Taurus. So must you do: if the star os fpimd om these quadrants between the first degree and the remainder of the quadrant up to the last degree, you must observe and take one-third of it and similarly observe whether the discovered number is more or less than 16. So that what I say may be easier and readier to understand, thus shall it be known: from 1° of Leo to 18° of Virgo there are fulfilled three times 16, of the fore parts, and from 1° [of Aquarius] to 18° [of Pisces] similarly; and again, from 12° [of Gemini] to 30° of Cancer, and from 12° [of Sagittarius] to 30° of Capricorn. The degrees of the forward parts are 48 altogether. And from 18° of Virgo [to 30° of Libra and from 18° of Pisces to 30° of Aries is 42°; and from 1° of Taurus to 12° of Gemini, as well as from 1°«of Scorpio to 12° of Sagittarius, is 42°]. And they all belong to the external degrees and hinder parts. And these are likewise the true and natural termini of the seven gods, the peculiar possessions of each several one of them. For example, [from 1° of Leo and Aquarius to 2 1/2° is the terminus of the Sun, and from] 2 1/2° of Leo and Aquarius to 6 1/2° is the terminus of the Moon; from 6 1/2° to 10°, of Saturn; from 10° to 13° 45' of Jupiter; from 13° 45' to 24° 15' of Mercury; from 24° 15' of Leo to 12° of Virgo, and from 24° 15' of Aquarius to 12° [of Pisces], of Mars; and from 12° of Virgo [and of Pisces] to 18° of Virgo and of Pisces belongs to Venus. These are dominant [degrees]. Again, from 12° of Gemini and 12° of Sagittarius to 14 1/2° of Gemini and 14 1/2° of Sagittarius belongs to the Sun; these termini are dominant degrees up to 18° of the two signs; to 22° of the two signs is the property of Saturn . . . (Col. VIII) [- - -] . . . and from 18° of Virgo and Pisces to 20 1/2° of both signs is the terminus of the Sun, daemonic; from 20 1/2° of both signs to 24 1/2° is the Moon's terminus; from 241 /2° of both signs to 28° is the terminus of Saturn; [from 28°] of both to 1° 45' of Libra and Aries to [14° 15' of Libra and Aries is the terminus of Mercury; and from 14° 15' of both signs to 30° of Libra and] Aries is the terminus of MArs, daemonic. Again, from 1° of Scorpio and of Taurus to 12° of Sagittarius [and of Gemini] is the terminus of Mars. Thus let these termini be marked out. There are two sects, of night and day, of the Sun and [of the Moon], and the Sun rules the day and the Moon runs the night. Saturn and Jupiter are the bodyguards of the Sun, Mars and Venus of the Moon; Mercury belongs to the Moon by night and to the Sun by day. Whenever, then, it is needful to test a star so must you test it. In diurnal genitures . . . let the [diurnal] star be found within the 16°, [and the nocturnal] outside of them; and in nocturnal genitures, let the nocturnal stars be found within and the diurnal outside of the 16°; for the reverse is evil. And preferably let the lords of the houses of the luminaries and the masters of the centers and the lords of the loci be found upon the numbers; for greater happiness results; and preferably let the sects be performing their own proper acts; for the exchange of properties between the sects is fatal. There are seven significant signs, the horoscope, the fourth from it, the fifth, the seventh, the ninth, the tenth, and the eleventh. Let, therefore, the stars that form the geniture be ruling their houses in the significant signs, and so let them be found, for this is best. Andf let the diurnal stars be at the diurnal centers not only in terms of signs, but also of degrees, or let them be moving toward the centers, and let the nocturnal stars be retreating. But in the nocturnal genitures, let the nocturnal stars (Col. IX) be at the nocturnal centers in terms of signs and degrees . . . their advance is hostile . . . if at night, the Moon. And by day let the Sun abide in a masculine sign, by night, the Moon. By day let Saturn be at the horoscope or zenith, standing in some relation to the geniture; by night similarly Mars; for the reverse is bad, particularly if they are not sympathetic to the geniture. The centers are called horoscope, zenith, occident, nadir. The second from the horoscope is Hope; the third Friends and Goddess; the fourth Foundation, Base, Resource; the fifth Good Fortune; the sixth Daemonie; the seventh Sign of Death; the eighth Inactive; the Ninth Defection and Region of Strange Land; the tenth Accomplishment; the eleventh Good Daemon; [the twelfth Evil Daemon]. Now according to Asclepius the subjects of the inquiry are thus arranged; from the horoscope questions of length of life are to be sought; from the second in the upward direction, livelihood; from the third, brothers; from the fourth, parents; from the fifth, children; from the sixth, injury or suffering; from the seventh, wife; from the eighth, fortune and death that puts a bound to all, according to the lords of these houses. We, however, seek from the horoscope length of life and peculiarities of soul, from the Sun father, patrimony, leaders, and the senses; from the Moon mother, maternal endowment, and body; from Saturn the confirmation of every written instrument, evil or good, and benefit from inheritances from elders and from the death of outsiders, and crops from the earth; from Jupiter offices, preisthoods, knowledge, children, wealth; from Mars, brothers, and arts of violence carried out by means of fire and iron. Injury comes from Mars, Saturn and the horoscope; by day . . . from Saturn to Mars . . . (Col. X) [- - -] . . . [we inquire about] death from the descending sign, and call it the Theme of Death; and in all the book on planetary effects . . . But now we must speak of the phases of the stars or about the Sun's rising and setting . . . And the motion of the planets thus brings about in the case of Mercury and Venus the occasions of their being left behind or running ahead, and in the case of the three remaining planets their stations and retrogressions. Now when the Sun runs 15° away from the stars, the stars rise and exercise especial power upon genitures. Mars is an excessively evil influence at rising until he has escaped from the hostile fire of the Sun. Mercury again overtakes the Sun only after having been left 22° behind him; for as he descends his sphere he comes closer to the earth; but when Venus has been left 48° behind and has stood still, she descends her own proper sphere and overtakes the Sun. Thereafter, being the more depressed, they again precede him by the same distance, and when they have been elevated on their spheres they have their evening stations. Then they are again overtaken by him and within the 15° their concealments take place. The stars are in concord with their effects . . . (Col. XI) [- - -] . . . when they stand still they are powerful in their proper effects. But the three stars rising in opposition to the Sun move, preceding the Sun and removed from him by 15°; they come to a standstill when they are 120° away from him and are powerful in their influences; when they are 180° away and are in opposition to him they make their western evening rising and still retreat; then they turn backward in their course and are unfavorable to their own effects; then for the second time they stand still; and at the first [of their station] their significance is good, but at the end evil. Now they await the Sun, and stand still when the sun is 120° distant from them. Then they are concealed and are divergent from their effects. But Mars besides has two other phases, the ninety-day anomalies, when he is in the sextile aspect to the Sun; and in the first he is strongly maleficent and makes evil those who have their nativities at the time; but in the second [he makes] them daring, bold, evildoers and robbers caught in the act; then coming toward him the Sun is in the sexitle aspect to him. These are called their configurations and phases. There are four configurations of the Sun, two equinoxes in the eighth degree of Aries and of Libra, and two solstices, the summer, in the eighth degree of Cancer, and the winter in the eighth degree of Capricorn. Of the Moon there are preeminently four configurations: conjunction, when it is unseen(?); first half-moon, when it is seven days old; full moon, when it is fourteen; second half-moon when it is twenty-one. The Moon looses the bonds of longitude and latitude in seven-day periods, but the Sun at the solstitial and equinoctial degrees. The signs, because of the obliquity of the circle, do not ascend in equal periods, but vary in seven different regions or climes. For in the Ethiopic clime Aries ascends in twenty-two periods and Libra in thirty-eight, in which the amount to be added is 2 2/3; in the Syrian clime Aries ascends in twenty-one and Libra in thirty-nine periods, and the amount to be added or subtracted is 3. In the Rhodian clime [Aries ascends] in twenty and Libra in forty periods, and the amount added or subtracted is 3 1/3; in the clime of Asia and Ionia Aries ascends in nineteen and Libra in forty-one, wherein the amount added or subtracted is 3 2/3; in the clime of Argos (Col. XII) Aries ascends in eighteeen [and Libra in forty-two, and the amount] added [is 4]; in the clime of Rome and Italy and maritime Gaul Aries ascends [in seventeen and] Libra in forty-three, and the amount added or subtracted is 4 1/3; in . . ., Germany and [Britain] Aries ascends [in sixteen] and Libra in forty-four, and the amount added or subtracted is 4 2/3. Now in every clime Cancer and Capricornus ascend in thirty periods; fifteen periods equal one equinoctial hour, and the period is of primary importance with reference to life. For the rest, of the signs of the zodiac some hear one another, some see one another, and some perceive one another. Those that hear one another are the ones beginning with the equinoctial signs which are equally distant from them, and their degrees hear each other's degrees and the signs the signs. For since day does not see night because it is diametrically opposite to it, equal night hears equal day. Whenever night is completed in equal hours with the day, the signs also hear one another in periods of time; for the day in Taurus is thirteen hours, when the Sun passes through Pisces or Taurus. Gemini and Aquarius hear each other; for when the Sun is in Gemini the day is fourteen hours and when he is in Aquarius the night is fourteen hours. Cancer and Capricornus also are to one another in the relation of hearing, but they are prevented by the Earth intervening between them. Leo and Sagittarius hear one another, and similarly Virgo and Scorpio, but Libra and Aries do not. Equal day looks upon, but does not hear, equal day; so the ten signs beginning with the tropical signs and equally distant on either side look upon one another; as, for instance, Leo and Gemini; for when the Sun is in Leo and similarly when he is in Gemini the day is fourteen hours and the night ten. Similarly Taurus and Virgo look upon one another, then Libra and Aries, then Scorpio and Pisces, then Sagittarius and Aquarius; Capricornus and Cancer, however, have the seeing relation one to another but are thrust apart because of the Earth intervening between them; and no other sign rises where Capricorn rises or where Cancer rises. Thus without seeing each other they rise from these places with no sign looking upon them. For this reason these signs alone cast shadows outside, while the Sun is passing through the signs that look upon one another. Wherefore admittedly day looks upon day. But these signs which perceive one another are the dwelling places of the stars, as Cancer and Leo, Virgo (Col. XIII) [and Gemini, Taurus and Libra, Scorpio and Aries, Pisces and Sagittarius, Capricornus and Aquarius - - -] . . . and the double-bodied, Gemini, Virgo, [Sagittarius, and Pisces . . .] the tropical signs . . . the double-bodied belong to Mercury and Jupiter . . . [- - -] . . . they are called "solid" because of the "solid" signs each one is set aside for a single element . . . [- - -] . . . they are called eccentricities because the earth is the central point of the universe, and is the midmost of the seven planets. Still other ethereal constellations revolve in their own circles. The Sun is in apogee in Gemini; Venus is in perigee in Pisces and in apogee in Virgo; Jupiter is in apogee in Cancer and in perigee in Capricorn . . . (Col. XIV-XV: too fragmentary to be translated) (Col. XVI) [- - -] . . . Hippocrates testified; for he called the Sun Daemon and the Moon Fortune. Leo is a male sign and Cancer female; and to the five gods that move together nature has assigned houses in pairs, a male and a female. For the Sun holds dominion by day, and the Moon by night, and these both by day and by night serve the two kings; and the signs inhabited by them are the vitals of the universe. To Mercury was given the first section, that beneath Leo and Cancer, in which are Virgo and Gemini, female and male. To Venus the zone beneath this, in which are Libra and Taurus, male and female. To Mars the zone beneath this, in which are Scorpio and Aries, female and male. To Jupiter the zone beneath this, in which are Sagittarius and Pisces, male and female. To Saturn the zone over all, Capricornus and Aquarius, female and male. Thus also from these regions they stand guard over the Moon and the Sun. In these signs the stars have their own powers and are vigorous. And nature assigned them thrones and prisons; their thrones the signs upon which they are exalted and have royal power and prisons wherein they are depressed and oppose their own powers. The [throne of the Sun] is at 19° of Aries, [his prison in Libra. The Moon's throne] us 3° of Taurus, [her prison 3° of Scorpio]. Saturn's [throne is 21° of Libra, his prison in Aries. The throne of Jupiter is 15°] of Cancer, his prison 15° [of Capricornus]. The throne of Mars [is 28° of Capricornus and his prison 28] of Cancer. [The throne of] Venus [is 27° of Pisces,] her prison [27° of Virgo]. (Col. XVII) [- - -] . . . and in Libra, Aquarius and Gemini . . . In Taurus, Virgo, and Capricornus the Moon, Venus and Mercury rejoice, and in part Mars, but he does not take part in the governorship because the trianle belongs to similar gods as masters. In Scorpio, Pisces, and Cancer Mars and Venus rejoice, and the Moon shares the triangle as well, but does not take part in the governorship by day. This is the order of the houses and exaltations. . . . [Hermes] observed the stars, among the signs of the zodiac, in the degrees from the first of Leo to the thirtieth of Libra increasing, from 1° of Aquarius to 30° of Aries moving . . . in elevation and latitude, and from 1° of Scorpio to 30° of Capricornus and from 1° of Taurus to 30° of Cancer diminishing, and from equal diminishing quadrants he observed the motion of the universal heavenly bodies becoming . . . He observed that the 360° hold significance for the universe; wherefore the universe is itself imperishable . . . For it moves . . . and equal increment and subtraction . . . (Col. XVIII) [- - -] . . . they rejoice in the signs before their own exaltations, and affording complete effects . . . perfect; but they are afflicted in the signs following their own exaltations. For the stars depart from their own exaltations and begin to be depressed; they do not rejoice when they are in opposition tro one another unless they exchange houses. The planets of opposite sects are more harmful when in opposition. The maleficent planets are most prone to injure in the quartile aspect and in opposition, but are harmless in trine. The beneficient planets in trine are most beneficial, in the quartile aspect or in opposition less effective. The triangles that come about when the Sun is in trine with respect to the Moon are sure in their effects but the quartile aspect and opposition are not. . . . [- - -] . . . in the quartile aspect or in opposition to the Moon when it is becoming full signifies insecurity, great and bloody dangers; and in quartile aspect to the waning Moon . . . is especially significant of insecurity and danger . . .

You, whoever you are, who are reading the letter, make a small effort and translate to the women what is written in this letter and tell them. Ptolemaios to his mother Zosime and his sister Rhodous, greetings. You blame me through letters and through people as if I had done wrong, so I swear by all the gods that I have done nothing of what has been said, except only about the donkey of Karas. But you seemedto be lying in wait for me. And if you are angry because I did not send anything though I had heard, the reason is that I was kicked by a horse and was in danger of losing my foot [or even] my life. I blame you because you enquired about me neither by words nor by letters. The gods willing it would be well [ca. 20 lines lost] but also I detained him and he enjoyed himself for four days, night and day. On the next day, when there was not even a bit to drink, he stood up saying to me: "Do you want a mina of meat bought for you?" I said: "Yes." At once I gave him two four-obol pieces for the mina of meat. Although he took the two four-obol pieces, he did not bring either the meat or the money nor has he been seen by me up to now. I write to you not for the sake of the money but in regard to his state of mind about my sister. On account of the respect for all of you I had forbidden her to speak to him about the money which he owed her. By the gods - - - I was distressed when I heard [where he ended up] because of a bit [of money]. I felt bad that you, Rhodous - - - did not come up for the twenty-fifth of the god. I entreat you to come for the seventieth of the god, to come to me as to your own home. The same affection remains. Entreat also the old woman to come. Concerning the letter which you sent to me, [I,] as [I] did [not] receive it, said: "No, by Sarapis, I did not tear it up; for I am not stupid. " [6 lines very damaged; 1 or more lines missing] though she - - - and took into account (?) that, at once, I might form an opinion. She is completely inconsiderate. Since you were away from me, I was in distress for four days lest she was sick or had experienced some other trouble, and I sent my sister, using Karas as a pretext. In learning about her health I revealed the entire matter. Her brother, Ammonios, <told> my sister that she was away. When I heard that she was away, it made me happy that she was not ill and no evil had befallen on her, but I am angry because she did not bid me good-bye, but went away without me. But there is nothing unusual in their lack of consideration. For I wanted to send you everything. I pray that you are good health. Great Tapsois and her mother, Isarous.

Aurelius Atisios, son of Hatres and Thallous, from the village of Karanis, about sixty years old, with a scar on the lower part of the . . . knee, acknowledges to Aurelius Heron, son of Apon and . . ., from the same village, about . . . years old, with a scar on the right(?) . . ., that he, Atisios, has ceded to Heron from the present for all time the following property which belongs to him and which was registered by him in the declaration made in the office of the censitor Sabinus in year . . ., on Thoth 22, and which is located in the horiodeiktia of the above-mentioned village of Karanis in the 4th and 5th toparchy of the division of Herakleides: in the first section, in the hamlet called Talinarty, three and nine sixty-fourths arourai of arable private land, and five-sixteenths of an aroura of uninundated land; and in the 5th section, in the locality called Tkainpao, two arourai of private land sown in year 14-13-6. And Atisios has further surrendered to Heron from the auspiciously approaching year 19-18-11 forever the cultivation of the following property which the party of the first part, Atisios, registered in the same declaration: in the above-mentioned 1st section, in the hamlet called Talinarty, six and seven-eighths arourai of arable royal land; and other property, viz. seven-sixteenths of an aroura of royal land sown in year 13-12-5, and nine-sixteenths of an aroura of uninundated land, the measurements in arourai of the entire area being whatever they are, more or less, with all their existing boundaries, conduits, sluices, entrances and all other rights of use in accordance with the custom from the past to the present. Of this property the adjoining areas, as contained in the above-mentioned declaration, are as follows: of the private and royal land in the 1st section, which is all in one block, on the east the estate of Ptollas, on the west a canal, beyond which there is waste land entirely unowned; of the arourai of the 5th section, on the east the estate of Tauemera, on the west the estate of Paesios. (The transaction is) without price, cession money or any payment whatever, in return for all the public taxes on the property. The party of the first part, Atisios, will guarantee with full guarantee to Heron and his representatives the terms of the cession of the above-mentioned arourai, which he will deliver unencumbered, unpledged, unmortgaged and free from all taxes - the public dues of all kinds, i.e. taxes in wheat, barley, and money, the annonae, all other impositions, and the imperial delegatio, from the past up to the month Mesore of the present year 18-17-10, devolving upon the party of the first part, Atisios, because the crop standing in the fields in the present year belongs to Atisios himself - and from private debts and every claim forever. From now on Heron will exercise ownership and control over all the arourai that have been ceded and surrendered to him, and from the next auspiciously approaching year he will appropriate their produce and will have the authority to administer and manage the property and to . . . the royal land, in whatever way he chooses, and he will pay to the imperial treasury starting in the month Thoth of the auspiciously approaching year all the public dues, i.e. the annonai, all impositions, and the imperial delegatio for all time. Neither Atisios himself nor anyone else on his behalf shall proceed against this property in any way, but, if anyone does proceed against it in any way whatsoever . . ., he (Atisios) will himself immediately remove him at his own expense and will further pay double the costs, apart from the fact that the aforesaid terms also will remain valid. Neither the transferor Atisios nor indeed the transferee Heron has the authority to alter . . . or to violate in any way any of the provisions written herein, inasmuch as they have entered upon this cession and surrender voluntarily and of their own free will. That this transaction has been correctly and accurately done, they have, in response to the formal question, so declared. (2nd hand) I, Aurelius Atisios, son of Hatres, acknowledge that I have ceded the following property which belongs to me in the horiodeiktia of the village of Karanis: five and twenty-nine sixty-fourths arourai, in all, of private land; and have further surrendered seven and seven-eighths arourai, in all, of royal land, of which the adjoining areas are mentioned above, in return for all the public taxes on the property including the imperial delegatio.

First <of all> I pray daily for your good health in the presence of all the gods. I would have you know then, sister, that we have been staying in Koptos near [[my]] your sister and her children, so that you may not be grieved about coming to Koptos; for your kinsfolk are here. And just as you desire above all to greet her with many greetings, so she prays daily to the gods desiring to greet you along with your mother. So when you have received this letter of mine make your preparations in order that you may come at once if I send for you. And when you come, bring ten shearing of wool, six jars of olives, four jars of honeyed wine (stagma), and my shield, the new one only, and my helmet. Bring also my lances. Bring also the fittings of the tent. If you find an opportunity, come here with good men. Let Nonnos come with you. Bring all our clothes when you come. When you come, bring your gold ornaments, but (continued in the left margin:) do not wear them on the boat. (Verso) I salute my lady daughter Heliodora. Hermias salutes you.

For though Serambos, strategos appointed by Aristomachos, wrote an order to Ptolemaios to the effect that since Apollonios had not even yet produced Apollonia, if he should not even now produce her in ten days, Ptolemaios was to exact 43 drachmai from Apollonios the horse-breaker and pay them to me, and though he received the order and though Apollonios has not produced Apollonia and the term has expired, and on top of that a further period has elapsed, in spite of my demands 'he will not pay' me the 43 drachmai. I beg you therefore, if so it please you, not to suffer me to be wronged by him, but to order Aphthonetos the strategos to write to Serambos that, if my story be true, he is to exact from Ptolemaios according to the edict three times the sum which should have been exacted, or 129 drachmai, and pay this to me; and so through you may I obtain justice.

Iulius Lucullus, the honorable epistrategos, from Gaius Apolinarius Niger, Antinoite, of the Osirantinoan tribe and of the Hermaian deme. Marcus Anthestius Gemellus, a veteran, expressed in the will which he drew up his dying wish that his daughter Valeria Tertia, also called Thaisarion, a minor, be heir of his property left in the Arsinoite nome. As guardians of her orphan state he left me, Apolinarius Niger, and Valerius Komon, and as associate the child's grandmother Valeria Sempronilla. Now as it has been enjoined, my lord, by Herennius Philotas the former epistrategos and by Antonius Makron likewise that an Antinoite shall not act as guardian for any one else than an Antinoite who is in the nomarchy, therefore, being myself unable to undertake this guardianship which has been entrusted to me, I have submitted, my lord, a copy of the decisions in like cases, and ask to be relieved of this according to the judgements, and beg you to order your decision to be carried out, so that I may receive relief. Farewell. The copy is: The eleventh year of the Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius, Mesore 6. When Eudaimon, son of Hermaios, had been summoned in accordance with a petition, and Dionysios had come forward and the petition presented by him had been read before the court, Philotas said: "Whence was he who left Eudaimon as guardian?" Apollonios the Younger said: "He was a Roman [who dwelt] in Ibion Panykteris." Philotas said: "Your contention would be just even if [the person who appointed] him guardian were an Antinoite, for he is not obliged to act as guardian for anyone other [than an Antinoite] in the nomarchy." Apollonios said: "We shall show that they undertook [the guardianship] and have done everything like guardians." Philotas said: "It has been decided that Eudaimon is not obliged to act as guardian except only for an Antinoite. But if he undertook this guardianship, I shall appoint [a judge and] auditors." Apollonios the Younger said: "Eudaimon son of Hermaios did not accept it, his . . . accepted it." Philotas said: "Is he an Antinoite? Is he an Antinoite?" He replied: "Yes, [and I ask] your clemency." Philotas said: "I shall appoint the same person as judge and auditor [who] shall investigate who accepted the guardianship and shall examine the accounts and shall compel that which is shown to be in the hands of the (present) guardians [to be given] to him who will be appointed [guardian]. And the exegete of Hermou polis shall see to it that the guardian is appointed." Thracidas said: "Lest we should seem to have remained silent we guarantee that we owe . . . and a half talents to the orphan girl." Philotas said: "What you have said has been written." Dioskoros [said]: "We ask that he who is to be appointed guardian be appointed upon the same conditions [as] Eudaimon was appointed according to the will." Philotas said: "He is to be appointed on the same terms." [Dioskoros] said: "If you please, give us the auditor." Philotas said: "Hermias the former market commissioner [and] former cosmete." (Copy) of another: Antonius Makron to Aphrodisios officiating exegete of Antinoou polis, [greeting]: For whatever property of the Antinoite orphans, about whom you write, is in that nome appoint as guardians [reputable] and suitable persons, but for what is in other nomes notify the strategoi so that [for each of them] they too may choose suitable and reputable persons. Twenty-second year of the Emperor Caesar Trajan [Hadrian Augustus], Phamenoth 9. Copy of subscription: Announce to the relatives of the [orphan, who also] petitioned me, that your request is approved. The upshot of the decision: If you accept the guardianship [in the future], you are not unaware that you indeed neglected [it] in the past at your own risk. Year 13, Pauni 12.

The twenty-third year of Tiberius Caesar Augustus, Choiak third. (2nd hand) To Chairemon, the exegetes, from Taorses, daughter of Eutychos, with, as guardian, her relative Ptolemaios, son of Chairemon. My husband Galates, son of Lysimachos, died, leaving by me three sons under age, Lysas, Lysimachos, and Eutychas. For them I have had myself appointed guardian by you. Galates, with his brothers Didymos the elder, Didymos the younger, and Lysimachos, was indebted to Kastor and Lysimachos, both sons of Lysimachos, in accordance with a mortgage executed in the . . .teenth year of Tiberius Caesar Augustus. This mortgage affected the catoecic estates belonging to them by inheritance from their father consisting of a catoecic allotment of eighty-two arourai in the division of Polemon. Of these there are in the vicinity of Tebtynis thirty-seven arourai in two parcels, in the vicinity of Theogonis twenty-five arourai in one parcel, formerly the property of Lucius Terentius, and in the vicinity of Kerkesis the remaining twenty arourai in another parcel. Accordingly, the aforesaid arourai of the allotment amount to eighty-two or thereabouts. The properties adjoining each parcel and the other details are set forth in the said mortgage. In consideration of the sum of two talents 1,200 drachmai borrowed through it and of the interest that has accrued from the time of the said mortgage up to the present, Kastor and Lysimachos have laid claim to the aforesaid eighty-two arourai of the allotment on the basis of the transfer of title which they caused to be made in the twenty-first year of Tiberius Caesar Augustus through the bureau of registration of catoecic lands, and have made a partial cession to their own brothers. We have, therefore, entreated both Kastor and his brother Lysimachos to deal kindly with us on condition that we shall give them 2,500 silver drachmai toward a share of the public taxes and other debts which Galates and his brother owe, and on condition that all of us resign our claims and approve the transfer of title effected through the bureau of registration and also the cessions made to the brothers of those about Kastor. I therefore petition you in the names of my said sons who are minors, and of myself as their guardian, with the brothers of Galates, Didymos the elder, Didymos the younger, Lysimachos, and Haryotes joining in the petition, to give orders to write to the clerk of the grapheion to prepare with me the agreement of renunciation and approval concerning the sixth part which was inherited by my sons who are under age. The guarantee is to rest upon me together with the brothers of Galates under conditions of mutual surety, in order that I may be benefited along with my sons. (3rd hand) It has been approved.

I acknowledge to you the following: I, the aforementioned Nikantinoos, collective taxpayer, made a settlement withregard to you, the aforementioned Phoibammon and Anastasia, his wife, represented by you, the aforesaid Apollos, village chief, in the local civil courthouse with regard to the debt that has now indeed been paid by me for the redemption of a deed of security drawn up in favor of Iosephios, [the son], on the initiative of his parents concerning the estate that was put up as security to him by my parents and that was sold to you, the aforementioned Phoibammon and Anastasia, his wife, by my nephew and nieces a short while ago, that is to say Eudoxia and Antonia and Kollouthos, in accordance with the legal force of the deeds of sale of the said estate that have been drawn up by them for you and that are valid on their own. And after many words have been said and many moves have been made here between me, Nikantinoos, and Apollos, village chief and the one who represents you, the aforementioned, finally, before a lawsuit and before cognition trials took place, good friends mediated between us by taking up the case and decided that I, the said Nikantinoos, for the complete discharge of the debt, paid by me to redeem the deed of security over the aforesaid estate, receive from you seven gold solidi each minus two carats according to the goldsmithsÕ standard of the said village of Aphrodite and twenty artabai of wheat according to the five-measures standard that belongs to you, the said Phoibammon <read: Apollos> as the representative of the two of you, the aforementioned. Because these things, then, have taken place in this way and we are content and pleased with them, both I, Nikantinoos, and Apollos, village chief, because of this and in accordance with the judgment of the mediating friends, I have proceeded to this written agreement of settlement through which I, the aforementioned Nikantinoos, acknowledge of my own free will and by my own irrevocable choice and with honest intent, of sound mind, without any fraud and without fear and force and deceit and compulsion, on the one hand that I have received and have been paid in full by you, the aforementioned Phoibammon and Anastasia, represented by you, the aforesaid Apollos, village chief, that what has been agreed upon to be given to me in accordance with the fair judgment of the mediating friends, i.e., seven solidi minus fourteen carats and twenty artabai of wheat according to the five-measures standard, in order that from this very moment I hand over to you the said deed of security for cancellation, and on the other hand that I have or will have no claim against you and your heirs and successors and their substitutes by default, nor against the said Apollos and his heirs, - neither I nor my heirs or successors nor their substitutes by default, - neither with regard to the said debt, which has now been paid by me to Iosephios for the redemption of the said estate, nor with regard to the said deed of security, nor with regard to the possession or ownership of the aforementioned estate located in the plain of the said village of Aphrodite in the lot called Mounlakon south of the road that leads to the village of Tmonechthe, nor regarding its proceeds, nor regarding anything whatsoever that belongs to the said estate by legal right or does not belong to it, small or large, written or unwritten, adjudicated altogether or not. but (I acknowledge) that you have by legal right of ownership for ever the possession and the ownership of the aforesaid estate with every legal right that belongs to it, because I have received in full what has been agreed upon to be given to me by you represented by you, the aforesaid Apollos, i.e. seven solidi minus fourteen carats according to the goldsmithsÕ standard of the said village and twenty artabai of wheat according to the five-measures standard, and (I acknowledge) that I have been released and am settled with you on all points and that from now on no legal action whatsoever is left for me against you, either personally or with regard to your property, whether the action is fitting or can be made to fit, from all preceding time until the present and abovementioned day and for all subsequent and everlasting time; and (I acknowledge) that I am not able at any moment or time to proceed against you or your heirs in court, be they local or elsewhere, or out of court, neither I on my own, nor through an authorized representative, nor through a man of straw, irrespective of whether this (acknowledgment) or part of it might become ineffective on the basis of an imperial act or an imperial decree or a rescript or an imperial will or a juridical argument or on whatever other basis; but (I acknowledge) that any legal action whatsoever against you and against your heirs, either personally or with regard to property, has become extinguished for me, as it was said above, because I have no part with you from now on with regard to the said estate or with regard to its possession or with regard to the debt or with regard to whatever other thing that may belong to the said estate and every legal right that belongs to it, because I have received in full what has been agreed upon to be given to me in accordance with the judgment of the mediating friends, i.e., seven solidi minus fourteen carats according to the goldsmithsÕ standard and twenty artabas of wheat, as has often been said. And for all this in general and for each one of the aforementioned items separately I took an oath by the holy and consubstantial Trinity and the piety and victory of the gloriously triumphant lord of the world, Flavius Iustinianus, the eternal august emperor, that I abide forever by the legal force of this agreement of settlement and to each of its parts and items and that I will not transgress it in any way. And if at any moment or time I should dare to transgress all the things agreed upon by me in this agreement of settlement, and if I should ever want to proceed contrary to it in any way, I acknowledge that I will give to you as a fine for the mere attempt at transgression twenty-four gold solidi, to be demanded as a matter of fact and with full legal power, apart from being subject to the risk of perjury and to the penalties stipulated by the laws against those who attempt to transgress their own sworn agreements, and that nonetheless both before and after the payment of the fine, if anyone ever sets out to make a demand, this acknowledgment of settlement shall be unbroken and unshaken forever, and I have executed it for your safety, being valid and guaranteed, while I put up as security for you with regard to all the aforementioned and with regard to the demand of the fine, if that should be the case, all that I now own and shall own, movables and immovables and self-movables, as a pledge and with the legal right of security, as if ruled by court; and having been asked the formal question by you regarding all the aforementioned, I have acknowledged that this is so, that I shall give it, that I do it, keep it, abide by it, that I shall fulfill it, that I bring it to an end.

Terry Wilfong should see the Verso before we close this glass; Traianos has a word to say also, about the letters by which we should identify the fragments. Then give it back to me, so that I update the card. 1) The letters used to identify the fragments in the publication of the Greek text (from A to N) and in that of the Coptic one (from a to m) did not correspond to each other, nor did they copy the original set of letters given to the fragments. As several fragments were joined during the conservation work for the APIS project, new letters have been given to identify the fragments. Fragment a = Sijpesteijn, fragments G + D = Worrell, fragments m + k. Fragment b = Sijpesteijn, fragments K + B = Worrell, fragments i + c. Fragment c = Sijpesteijn, fragments C + A = Worrell, fragments a + d. Fragment d = inv. 6124 (P.Customs , with no Coptic text on Verso). Fragment e = Sijpesteijn, fragment J = Worrell, fragment h. Fragment f = Sijpesteijn, fragments M + H = Worrell, fragments j + b. Fragment g = Sijpesteijn, fragment F = Worrell, fragment e. Fragment h = Sijpesteijn, fragment N = Worrell, fragment f? Fragment i = Sijpesteijn, fragment L = Worrell, fragment f? Fragment j = Sijpesteijn, fragments E + I = Worrell, fragments g (taken the other way up) + l. The order of fragments a-d is defined by the day numbers in the Greek text (frgg. a-d cover the months of Hadrianos and Tybi, with the very first days of Mecheir) and the day or section numbers of the Coptic text (which ends on fragment c); fragments e-j have no certain place. 2) For Hermes-days (days on which no duties were received), see P.Customs, p. 88-89.

Inquire at home on what terms they sail for monopoly trading and you will find that they sail on a half share. Now if you approve, write to me to repair the boat; for the opportunity has come and the boat-builders are free. The boat will then find work; for at present, as she is old, no one comes to deal with us; and if you wish, you will be able to let her for hire.

No little loss have you suffered since I was led to gaol; and the sheep which I have acquired since I came to you have been carried off by the shepherds since I was led to gaol.

You will be kind enough then not to believe that you have been kept waiting by my fault, but to take note of the real cause. If you or Sostratos need any green wild chickling (arakos), take as much as you wish, whether to the value of the whole sum or to part of it. If not, I have agreed with some shepherds who will pay me a price for it, so that in any case your claim shall be settled.

Several other people put themselves to trouble on his behalf, but the most effective was Kaphisophon son of Philippos the physician. The written report of the inquiry, which acquits him of all the charges, is already in the hands of Dositheos the memorandum-writer in order that the king may read it before letting him be released, as this is the regular procedure.

I think you are not ignorant of our keenness and zeal to serve you and how from the first we protected you; and when we saw you calumniated by Demeas and how the members of the association co-operated to have you condemned unjustly and Alketas my brother became surety for you and put himself to trouble along with his friends, engaging by written bond to produce you for trial within five days (of summons) or else pay the sum claimed, and yet you were so faint-hearted as to slip away without telling us, did you not know that, if nevertheless you wished to go down the river, we would have provided funds for the journey and enabled you to return with . . . counsellors to meet your adversaries and the members of the association; for we would have given you arguments that would have made your adversaries wail. Even now, then, if you can manage to present a petition by your own efforts, do so; for it was not expedient that we should write, and we have heard it is possible for you too procure decrees that will enable us to exact vengeance from them. Know then that Demeas has made a petition to Phanias against Alketas, saying that after guaranteeing by written bond to produce Theophilos for trial he is not producing him, and that Phanias has written to Eperatos to hold the crops of Alketas until he comes himself on the occasion of the review and hears the case. Try therefore, before Phanias sails up, to sail up yourself and be here before him; otherwise, if you do not appear, Alketas will be condemned and will be in danger of having to pay the 300 drachmai. But if it is possible to get a decree, do so; if not, sail up yourself, in order that you and Alketas may be acquitted and that, through not producing you at the trial, Alketas may not have to pay the sum claimed, which has been stated above.

I have had the misfortune to be proposed by the ciitzens as commissary of corn, though I am not yet of the right age nor due for that burden, but have been proposed by certain persons out of jealousy. I and my brother Theronides therefore have sent Dromon to explain these things to Apollonios, in order that he may help us and release me from that responsability. You would do me a favour then by immediately admitting Dromon to Apollonios's presence and assisting him to have speech with Apollonios as soon as possible and seeing that he sends him back to us immediately after settling everything.

Before all things I pray for your health and success; at the same time I also make daily obeisance for you before our ancestral gods. I wonder, brother - this is the second letter which I have sent to you since I came home, and you have written me no reply. I therefore ask you, brother, to write me at once about your well-being, that I too may be less troubled. For you know, brother, that I regard you not only as a brother but as a father and lord and god. For when I reached my house I at once wrote you perforce the first letter, having reached my house safely on the twenty-first, and I found all things well and our lady in good health. Our lady sends you salutations, as do also Maximus and his wife and children, and Gemellus, and Iulius and his wife, and Helene and all the children, by name. Give many salutations to Valerius and Celer and all his household, and Iulius Serenus and Serenus Sabinus and Sarapion and all who love you, by name. I pray for your welfare, most lordly brother.

Ann Arbor Petition addressed to Lucius Valerius Proculus, prefect of Egypt, by Ptolemaios, son of Diodoros, a tenant on the imperial estates in the Arsinoite nome, who complains that Isidoros, one of the sailors-divers attached to the irrigation service in the nome, has, through an agent named Ammonios, driven him from his leasehold, excluded him from his house, and done him violence until money was extorted from him.

From Ptolemaios, son of Diodoros, also called Dioskoros, an inhabitant of the Arsinoite nome. Since your inbred kindness, my lord prefect, extends to all, I too ask to share it. There is in the nome a certain class of men who are called sailor-divers. These, being public officers and in the service of the water administration and in attendance on the shore-guards and cultivation inspectors for the time being, are therefore relieved of all head-taxes and all public services and are also fed at the public expense; and accordingly they are absolutely forbidden to take up any other employment. One of these, a certain Isidoros, son of Mareis, a man of very bold and reckless character who, by means of suborned agents, counterfeits royal leases for the sake of extortion and gain - as I shall prove also on the day of trial - made an attack on me through one of his suborned agents, a certain Ammonios, surnamed Kaboi, a culpable fellow who had been proscribed on account of his lawless life. Notwithstanding that I am a lessee of domain land who pay considerable revenues to the imperial treasury and offered considerable security for the lease, he refused to let me enjoy my lease and even excluded me from my house and insulted me until he extorted money from me. I have therefore had recourse to you, the helper of all, and beg you, since you have for the present renounced your visit to the nome, to give orders for a letter to be written to the strategos of the division of Themistes and Polemon to hear me against him, since I can bring proofs on the spot concerning my being insulted and subjected to extortion, so that I may be able to live unmolested in my home during the most happy times of our exalted emperor, and your delightful prefecture, and may obtain relief. Farewell. (2nd hand) I, Ptolemaios, son of Diodoros, have presented the petition, as aforesaid. (3rd hand) The strategos of the nome will do what is proper. (4th hand) Return it.

I appealed, my lord, by petition to the most illustrious prefect, Aemilius Saturninus, informing him of the attack made upon me by a certain Sotas, who held me in contempt because of my weak vision and wished himself to get possession of my property with violence and arrogance, and I received his sacred subscription authorizing me to appeal to his excellency the epistrategos. Then Sotas died and his brother Iulius, also acting with the violence characteristic of them, entered the fields that I had sown and carried away a substantial quantity of hay; not only that, but he also cut dried olive shoots and heath plants from my olive grove near the village of Kerkesoucha. When I came there at the time of the harvest, I learned that he had committed these transgressions. In addition, not content, he again trespassed with his wife and a certain Zenas, having with them a brephos, intending to hem in my cultivator with malice so that he should abandon his labor after having harvested in part from another allotment of mine, and they themselves gathered in the crops. When this happened, I went to Iulius in the company of officials, in order that these matters might be witnessed. Again, in the same manner, they threw the same brephos toward me, intending to hem me in also with malice, in the presence of Petesouchos and Ptollas, elders of the village of Karanis who are exercising also the functions of the village secretary, and of Sokras the assistant, and while the officials were there, Iulius, after he had gathered in the remaining crops from the fields, took the brephos away to his house. These acts I made matters of public record through the same officials and the collectors of grain taxes of the same village. Wherefore of necessity I submit this petition and request that it be kept on file so that I may retain the right to plead against them before his excellency the epistrategos concerning the outrages perpetrated by them and the public rents of the fields due to the imperial fiscus because they wrongfully did the harvesting.

Of the petition which I submitted to the most illustrious prefect, Aemilius Saturninus, (2nd hand) and (3rd hand) of the sacred subscription which I obtained from him, I have appended a copy. I request, if it seem good to your Fortune, that you write to the centurion stationed in the Arsinoite nome to send the defendant for your examination and that you hear my complaint against him, in order that I may obtain justice. It is as follows: To Quintus Aemilius Saturninus, prefect of Egypt, from Gemellus also called Horion, son of Gaius Apolinarius, Antinoite, and however I am styled. I appeal, my lord, against Kastor, tax collector's assistant of the village of Karanis in the division of Herakleides of the Arsinoite nome. This person, who held me in contempt because of my infirmity Š for I have only one eye and I do not see with it although it appears to have sight, so that I am utterly worthless in both Š victimized me, having first publicly abused me and my mother, after maltreating her with numerous blows and demolishing all four doors of mine with an ax so that our entire house is wide open and accessible to every malefactor. These were demolished and we were beaten although we owed nothing to the fiscus, and for this reason he dared not even produce a receipt lest he be convicted through it of injustice or of extortion. Wherefore, since our savior has ordained that those who are victims of injustice shall approach you without fear in order to obtain justice, I request, my lord, that I be heard and avenged by you, so that I may be the object of your beneficence, and that the defendant be sent by your authority for your examination.

I appealed, my lord, by petition to the most illustrious prefect, Aemilius Saturninus, informing him of the attack made upon me by a certain Sotas, who held me in contempt because of my weak vision and wished himself to get possession of my property with violence and arrogance, and I received his sacred subscription authorizing me to appeal to his excellency the epistrategos. Then Sotas died and his brother Iulius, also acting with the violence characteristic of them, entered the fields that I had sown and carried away a substantial quantity of hay; not only that, but he also cut dried olive shoots and heath plants from my olive grove near the village of Kerkesoucha. When I came there at the time of the harvest, I learned that he had committed these transgressions. In addition, not content, he again trespassed with his wife and a certain Zenas, having with them a brephos, intending to hem in my cultivator with malice so that he should abandon his labor after having harvested in part from another allotment of mine, and they themselves gathered in the crops. When this happened, I went to Iulius in the company of officials, in order that these matters might be witnessed. Again, in the same manner, they threw the same brephos toward me, intending to hem me in also with malice, in the presence of Petesouchos and Ptollas, elders of the village of Karanis who are exercising also the functions of the village secretary, and of Sokras the assistant, and while the officials were there, Iulius, after he had gathered in the remaining crops from the fields, took the brephos away to his house. These acts I made matters of public record through the same officials and the collectors of grain taxes of the same village. Wherefore of necessity I submit this petition and request that it be kept on file so that I may retain the right to plead against them before his excellency the epistrategos concerning the outrages perpetrated by them and the public rents of the fields due to the imperial fiscus because they wrongfully did the harvesting.

With this assignment, therefore, I went from the consularis of the legion to the cornicularius.

You are aware, for another thing, that I have relieved you of your difficulties; [and if(?)] you remain steadfast in refusal the rest of your life, I shall do without my woman. If not, the woman whom you approve is the one whom I also want. I wrote you this letter at night, having found an opportunity, but I was not able to send it.

Saturninus was already prepared to leave on that day when so great a quarrel broke out. I say to him, "Come, intervene (and see) if you can help my father Ptolemaios."

I ask and beg you, father, for I have no one dear to me except you, after the gods, to send to me by Valerius a battle sword, a . . ., a pickaxe, a grappling iron, two of the best lances obtainable, a cloak of beaver skin(?), and a girdled tunic, together with my trousers, so that I may have them, since I wore out my tunic before I entered the service and my trousers were laid away new. And if you are going to send anything, put an address on everything and describe the distinguishing features to me by letter lest any exchange be made en route. And if you write me a letter, address it: Ņon the liburnian of Neptune.Ó Know that everything is going well at home, through the beneficence of the gods. I sent you 2 jars of olives, one in brine and one black. These jars are the same as those . . . [that] I sent; from them you can identify these too. I ask and beg you, father, to go to the Delta on a trading boat, so that you may buy and send three breeders . . . . My mother(?), my father Ptolemaios, and all my brothers [salute] you. Salute Aphrodisia, Isityche, . . . Serenus the clerk, your colleague Marcellus, your colleague(?) Terentius, and all your comrades.

Before all else, I pray for your health, which is my special wish. Know, father, that I have received the things that you sent me by . . . the veteran and by Numesianus, the . . . and the short cloak (palliolum), and I thank you because you considered me worthy and have made me free from care. I have sent you, father, by Martialis a bag well sewn, in which you have two mantles (amicla), two capes (amictoria), two linen towels, two sacks and(?) a linen covering. I had bought the last together with a mattress and a pillow, and while I was lying ill on the ship (liburna) they were stolen from me. You have also in the bag a cape of single thickness; my mother sent this to you. Receive also a chicken coop, in which you have sets of glassware, two bowls of quinarius size, a dozen goblets, two papyrus rolls for school use, ink (for use) on the papyrus, five(?) pens, and twenty Alexandrian loaves. I beg you, father, to be content with that. If only I had not been ill, I was hoping to send you more, and again I hope so if I live. I beg you, father, if it meets with your approval, to send me from there low leathern boots (caligae) and a pair of felt socks (udones). Boots with buttons(?) are worthless; I provide myself with footgear twice a month. And I beg you to send me a pickaxe. The adjutant took from me the one that you sent me, but I am grateful to him for furnishing me . . . . Moreover, I ask and beg you, father, to reply to me immediately about your health, that you have recovered your good health(?). I am worried about trouble at home(?) if you do not write back. And if god should be willing, I hope to live frugally and to be transferred to a cohort; but here nothing will be accomplished without money, and letters of recommendation have no value unless a man helps himself. I beg you, father, to send me a reply promptly. Know that Carpus came here in his wanderings and Dius was found(?) in the legion and I accepted 6 denarii on his behalf. My mother and my father and brothers salute you; and know that everything goes very well at home. Salute Aphrodisia and Isityche. Salute Arrius the centurion together with his family, Saturninus the clerk together with his family, Capito the centurion together with his family, Cassius the adjutant together with his family, Tyrannius the adjutant together with his family, Sallustius together with his family, Terentius the pilot, Fronto together with his family, Sempronius Italicus, Publicius, Severinus, your colleague Marcellus, and Lucius.

I approached the shore-guard Apollonios and the district katasporeus many times and had many confrintations with him (the shore-guard) when he was in the village, (requesting) that they supply the customary and sufficient water to the aforesaid marsh while the Nile was still at its height and before the water should go into the fields; but up to now I have been put off by them and they have refused to supply (the water), although the most sacred Nile has brought an excellent flood and ought to benefit the entire nome. The marsh therefore remains up to today in the greatest need; for the water coming from run-off was of no great quantity and was without gonos, and had received nothing of metra. As I can find no rest because of this, I request that a duplicate of this communication be delivered to the shore-guard and to Tyrannos, the katasporeus of the district, by one of the assistants of your office, in order that the marsh may be filled or they may know that if indeed any damage results from this cause they will be called to account before the most illustrious prefect and his excellency the procurator; for once the aforesaid marsh has dried down to the ground and the gonos and metrai have been reduced, damage will result not to this year's rent only, but there will result damage for the next three years, till the marsh receives gonos and metrai for growth.

Last year, [[my lord, wrote]], my lord, in the month of Pharmouthi, Claudius Calvinus, who then served as procurator, wrote to [[Nemesianos]] the then strategos of the nome, Nemesianos, a letter in which he indicated that when I was then superintendent of the Moschos estate, which includes a bath, and of three workshops in the same estate, I, along with Didymos, son of Didymos, who is a landholder in the Saite nome, was cited for 3 talents 1253 drachmai and more in the list of arrears sent from the fiscus; and (he ordered him) to take pains to sequestrate my property till I should settle my debts to the treasury. When I learned this, I immediately entered my claims in a petition which I presented to Nemesianos for him to forward 'to the procurator', since illness prevented me from sailing down myself at that time. These claims I now indicate also for you, my lord, pointing out for you the only days that I served as co-superintendent with Didymos and showing the accounts; for in the 14th year of the deified Aelius <read: Aurelius> Antoninus, on Pharmouthi 6, I was sent by Isidoros, formerly strategos of the nome, acting through his assistant Serenus, a sealed letter that had been sent for me by Septimius Severus, then procurator, in which he appointed me superintendent of the said estate; I went to Alexandria, and after I took up my office of superintendent on the 12th, I asked, on the 11th of the following month ofPachon, to Serenus that my time might not be counted(?) anymore from the same eleventh, and he granted me that, as he made known in his records for the 21st . . . as follows: Serenos said: . . . will be counted . . .

(Correction written in the right margin:) I ask, my lord, that [you] take knowledge . . . of these claims of mine, according to which I stayed in office as superintendent for only thirty days, and that the sum that has been shown is still owed to me for my expense, and that the sum . . . wrongly . . . be cancelled . . .

For I did not receive the afore-mentioned gold but the assistant did and he gave it to his headman and also to Victor, the toporetes being together one and a half pounds of gold. I do not know what else his headman received. The same most illustrious Sarapammon received the gold from his headman".

The illustrious afore-mentioned Flavius Sarapammon said: "I did discover that some persons from the village of Aphrodite made a conspiracy and wanted to divide the village in two parties(?) so that they again could attend minutely to murders and for that reason the conspirators have been asked for one pound of gold for the praesidial treasury." The illustrious comes militum said: "The administration will bring pressure to bear upon the most magnificent Sarapammon for the production of Zacharias in court. What has Menas to say about the accusations ?" The soldier Flavius Menas said: "I did not murder anyone and I also prove it. What if Menas proves(?) it? The same presbyter feeling nauseous stayed in the church and I in Antaiou (polis) and an abscess came out of the throat of the presbyter and he died thereof.

And if I shall not prove that he murdered my brother I shall die instead of him. And he did not ask for the blows he received or it must be by the fact that he was ten or eleven days alone". The afore-mentioned Maria defending Theodoros said: "The chiefs (of the police) of my village Aphrodite together with others who are in its service after having arrested my husband Herakleios put him in the watch-house of my village Aphrodite and after having taken wine to the same watch-house they drunk with him and when the evening had come they beat my same husband Herakleios and killed him with their swords and thereafter they gave his remains to the fire and they did this to him on the eighth of the month Phaophi of the passed sixth indiction at the setting of the sun. Being asked why they murdered my husband they said: 'The most illustrious Sarapammon and Menas wrote us to kill him', and I reserve against them the law me suiting regarding the death of my wretched husband. When Herakleios, my wretched husband, had been killed and his remains had been given to the fire so that they may be burned they poured again water on the same remains and they threw his bones in a basket and burried them I do not know where. I ask, therefore, that they are given to me so that I can burry them.

Opposing this the most discreet Victor and Senouthes, undertaking business for the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory (said) that, on the one hand, they absolutely rejected as not genuine the produced security for the eighteen nomismata from Psaios saying that it was in no regard true and they asked for that agreement. They also proved that the deed of sale of the holding in the first place had been executed without force and constraint and that the gold of the price, thirty-six nomismata, had been paid in full to him, and especially they produced the deed of sale concluded with the most discreet Ioannes concerning the afore-mentioned holding containing also the witnesses who at that time appended their signatures and bore witness to the payment of the thirty-six nomismata. They also produced another sale of a right to feed off concluded at some other, later time by Psaios with the afore-mentioned Ioannes of discreet memory containing a notice of the before-concluded deed of sale concerning the afore-mentioned holding and validating it and because of this confidently affirming and maintaining that if he had executed before the deed of sale concerning the holding by force and compulsion he would not have afterwards validated it by the later executed deed of sale concerning the right to feed off. Counterpleading against this the people of the prosecuting party acknowledged that the later concluded deed of sale concerning the right tofeeed off had been executed without any force but they said that they did not know how a notice had crept up in it of the earlier sale concerning the holding but that more likely it had by fraud or deceit of the notary at that time be included and they simply asked from the people of the defending party to prove the payment of the thirty-six nomismata. They said that they could not produce other witnesses or other proofs of the payment of the thirty-six nomismata and that proofs concerning that part of the deal could not be legally demanded from them as already a period of twenty years, more or less, had passed since the holding had been sold and the deed of sale concerning it had been drawn up. Pleading against this the people of the prosecuting party proved that they had often used loud complaints in the Holy Church against Ioannes of discreet memory and that they also often had approached the praeses of the province regarding this reason but that after there had been much cajolery by the opponents the discussion about that inquiry had been closed. And after other pleadings had been brought forward by the people of the defending party concerning the execution of the deed of sale concerning the holding and after many things had been said and pleaded in these matters by the people of both parties the people of both parties at last resolved and agreed in accordance with an arbitration and a friendly arrangement and judgment and examination by a common arbiter that the most discreet Victor and Senouthes undertaking business for Apollos and Paulos and Maria, children and heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory would swear a bodily oath that they knew for certain that the thirty-six goldpieces had been paid as the price of the afore-mentioned holding to Psaios and his wife Talous at the time of the sale and that in this way fourteen further nomismata each less four carats by the public standard have been paid to Psaios in addition as the price for the sold holding. For after having accurately investigated the rents of the afore-mentioned holding and all the public taxes that rest on it and after an accurate calculation of the remaining true revenues annually from the same holding after subtraction of the pious taxes it was resolved that accurately the holding was worth fifty nomismata and these gold ones. After these matters having been thus resolved and agreed upon by the people of both parties in accordance with the judgment and the arbitration of the common arbiter they jointly chose the most discreet Victor, presbyter, and Senouthes have sworn the bodily oath to Psaios and Talous that they very accurately knew that Ioannes of discreet memory paid them then, at the time of the sale the thirty-six goldpieces incapable of diminution. And now they have paid them the further fourteen goldpieces each less four carats by the public standard. Psaios also brought forward against Victor and Senouthes undertaking business for the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory that he sold them two other holdings, of however many arourai they may have been, for a low price at the time of difficulties not by force or by constraint of any sort but because of shortage of food and concerning these matters it has been decided by the common arbiter to keep quiet and not to make an inquiry against them regarding these matters because the alienation of these holdings had been made not by constraint but of his own free will. He also brought forward against them that he had been asked for a certain amount of corn and gold by Apollos allegedly for taxes and that although he did not owe anything and as a confirmation for the things having been said by him he produced a security concerning it. Pleading against these Victor and Senouthes said that they did not know anything accurately regarding this part as Apollos of blessed memory had left this earthly life nineteen years ago, more or less, and they have sworn an oath to him that they did not know anything concerning this inquiry. Psaios also brought forward against them that because of a court fee he had executed a security for them on a house that belongs to him for the security and freedom of encumbrances of the fourth part of the holding of Theodosios from Pakerke located in the plain of the village of Aphrodite of the same Antaiopolite nome and the persons of both parties resolved and agreed that the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory would have no claim against Psaios concerning the afore-mentioned house. And for the removal of every ambiguity between the parties it has been resolved to tear up the receipt for the eighteen nomismata brought by Psaios and also the security concerning the grain and the gold that had been asked forsooth on account of taxes and if anything else remained perhaps out of forgetfulness with him that had not been newly brought forward it has been resolved that that also will have absolutely no value but will be invalid and without authority because that has been decided between both parties so as to remove every inquiry and ambiguity. These things having been thus resolved and being acquiesced in by the people of both parties out of necessity they executed this general and comprehensive settlement being destructive to every hindrance and to every seed of a law-suit in accordance with which, on the one hand, Psaios and Talous acknowledge that they have received the remaining fourteen nomismata less fifty-six carats by the public standard for the completion of the price of the holding called Tausiris in accordance with what has been resolved between them, the boundaries of the same holding are as follows: in the South the fields of the heirs of Hermaouos, son of Psyros, former presbyter, in the North the fields of the heirs of Maria, daughter of Psaios, in the East the fields of Apa Besarion, son of Ioannes, presbyter, in the West the fields of the heirs of Rachel, daughter of Hermaouos, or whatever the boundaries may be, everywhere and on all sides, and they acknowledge that they have no longer any claim against the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory concerning the afore-mentioned holdings which have been sold to them at different times nor concerning a part thereof nor concerning the crops of the whole fore-going time nor concerning any corporeal or incorporeal right belonging to them, but they also acknowledge that the at different times concluded deeds of sale concerning them are valid and inviolable wherever they are produced. On the other hand, Psaios acknowledges that he will remove at his own risk and that of his property in accordance with the force of the concerning them concluded deeds of sale everyone who will take proceedings against the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory concerning the holdings bought from him or concerning a part thereof. And if Theodosios of Pakerke takes at any time or in any way proceedings against a part of the same holdings making a request or his heirs or someones of his family it has been resolved that the same heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory or Victor, the most discreet, and Senouthes now undertaking business for them will produce the between them and the afore-mentioned Theodosios concluded agreement which embodies a settlement and which lies with them and of which agreement they newly have handed a copy with their subscriptions and that Psaios thus having taken this settlement and using it and whatever other lawful rights he wants removes the afore-mentioned Theodosios taking proceedings against the same things or against a part thereof or his heirs and thus after the conflicts returns again the warranted copy of the same agreement to the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory. If at any time or in any way they defer to produce this afore-mentioned settlement, the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory or Victor, the most discreet, and Senouthes who now undertake business for them, when an inquiry is being made by Theodosios, the afore-mentioned, concerning a part of the same holdings it has been resolved that not Psaios will remove the afore-mentioned Theodosios nor his heirs who may oppose for him concerning a part of the same holdings but that the risk of the removal and the clearance of Theodosios will lay with the heirs of Ioannes of discreet memory or the persons who undertake business for them because they refused to produce the settlement as it has been thus resolved by the parties. And they allow them to partake in them, to enjoy them, to harvest the crops from them, to manage them in whatever proprietary way they may please for all continually succeeding time and they acknowledge that they have annihilated every claim regarding the afore-mentioned holdings or part thereof, suiting them or possibly suiting them. They also acknowledge that they have no longer any claim against them neither concerning the taxes because they have been asked in surplus nor concerning any case whatsoever generally but they also acknowledge that if any other papyrus or receipt concerning this law-case has been left with them that it will be invalid and without force wherever it will be produced because it has been thus resolved between the parties so as to remove and to cut out every inquiry concerning it.

Not being able to understand what was said, he asked them what they meant. And they said that they had gone fishing and had caught nothing, and then they had sat down and hunted for lice. The lice which they caught they left there, but what they did not catch they carried away in their clothing. Recalling the prophecy that the end of his life was at hand, he composed this epigram to himself: The earth enveileth here his sacred head, The godlike bard who men and heroes led, Homer. And as he withdrew he slipped because of the mud and falling on his side so met his end, they say. In regard to this, then, we shall bring to pass that we win distinction for ourselves, especially since we see that the historians are regarded with wonder. For this, then, Homer has been honored by all men both in his life and death.

Before everything I pray for your health, and at the same time I make daily supplication for you [before] the lord Sarapis. I wonder why you did not write to me neither through Celer nor through Sempronius. For when I came from my journey, I found them and asked them, why they did not bring a letter for me. They said: "Because of your journey". After I had heard about your welfare, I felt less anxiety. Therefore, my lady, do please [without delay] write to me about your welfare. I have received [a letter] through Sokrates and another small one through Antonianus, and I have received a letter from Hexas(?) and I have received another from Lobotes(?). You [wrote] to me also about [- - - (10 lines too damaged to be translated) - - -] I now write to you [so that] you may remember him, for now his letters fell on deaf ears and you wrote your second letter to us about these matters. I write about these matters; for I would have done everything to come to you, in the first place to make obeisance to your good and child-loving character and in the second place also because of these matters. Now I did not find an opportunity; but I rather wrote to you about these matters because I am travelling. Greetings to Maximus and his wife and Sempronius Kyrillos and Saturnilus and Gemellus and Iulius and his family and Helene and her family and Skythikos and Kopres, Chairemon, Thermouthis and her children.

Of parcel 1, 2 arourai : boundaries, on the south, a water conduit; on the north, west, and east, the olive yard of Chairemon and Haryotes, both the sons of Sambas. Of parcel 2, 2 1/2 arourai : boundaries, on the south and west, sown royal land; on the north, royal land, in part sanded out; on the west, a canal and a field. Of parcel 3, 5 arourai : boundaries, on all sides, sown royal land. Of parcel 4, 6 1/2 arourai : boundaries, on the south and west, the canal called of Sakoloas; on the north, royal land, and, in part, the canal of Sakolaos; on the east, the grain fields of Thermouthis, daughter of Strateios, and in part sown royal land. Of parcel 5, 6 1/2 arourai : boundaries, on the south and north and east, royal land, in part salted out; on the west, a canal, after which an olive yard of Ptolema, also called Tasoucharion. Of parcel 6, 11 3/4 arourai : boundaries, on the south, sown royal land, and, for a space, the date grove of Eirene; on the north, royal land, and, for a space, <fields> of the estate of Germanicus, in part sanded out; on the west, a canal, after which the olive garden of Dionysios, the son of Sambathion, and, for a space, royal land; on the east, a conduit, after which the olive yard of Akouso, also called Tamystha. Ofparcel 7, 4 arourai : boundaries, on the south, a canal, and, for a space, royalland; on the north, a canal after which a field; on the east, royal land and <fields> of the estate of Germanicus; on the west, a canal. Of parcel 8, 3 arourai : boundaries, on the south and west, sown fields; on the north, <fields> of the estate of Severus, salted out; on the east, sown fields, and, for a space, <fields> of the estate of Severus, salted out. Of parcel 9, 4 arourai : <boundaries>, on the south, a water channel; on the north, royal land; on the east, royal land, and, for a space, an olive yard of Dositheos, son of Dositheos; on the west, arid land of the estate of Antonia. Equal the preceding 45 1/4 arourai; equal, with the inspection of the unsown arid land in accord with the foregoing boundaries. Through the record of new plantations of the first year the village clerks have shown that some were upgraded first in the first year, wherefore they are reported in order that it be determined whether they are so. Of those upgraded in the tenth year from the ousiac lands of the estate of Charmos, <the arourai> upgraded by Ammonios the former strategos to vineyard from the tenth year and changed in planting in the first year to olive yard <are> 2 9/16 arourai. Inspections in accord. Of lands reckoned in the class paying rent in kind and others in the class of private land, the village clerks were in the second year relieved, as to the payments in kind and the fixed dues which were collectible, on their showing that the land cannot be sown by the public farmers nor otherwise yield revenue, and that of the former owners, some have died, and others have run away, and that, out of the lands (paying rents in kind) they (the clerks) have taken control of these (ownerless or unleased lands) on account of the fact that they (the lessees) owe very large sums for the leases they had assumed. Of Philoutarion, the daughter of Eudaimon, of the quarter of the Bithynians of the Iseion, the <arourai> shown to be under control of no one; and of date plantation, with dry land, abandoned by Philoutarion, 5 3/4 arourai, shown not able to pay more of the public dues being collected. Inspection (in accord?). Concerning the inspection of dry land at reduced rate of the procuratorship and the ousiac land, I am making clear that I will submit below the schedule for the inspection later. From the new settlement, what was gathered from his own husbandry in the first year was collected, but for the second year the village clerk is collecting nothing for it and has recorded what will be the yield from his own cultivation or through lease. It was permitted to report later, for the present apart from the receipts, the sums due out of the principal amounts booked for the first year; it is reported in order that the prosecution shall have taken place and it be determined how much is produced from personal cultivation. Formerly <estate> of Iucundus and Chresimos, for which was collected in the first year 235 5/6 artabai, additional payments 33 5/8 artabai, total 269 11/24 artabai. I make known that this is under lease, joint with others, to Ammonios, son of Didymos. Lands paying money taxes likewise. For certain lands, since, of their owners, one has died, another has run away, the village clerks have reduced the taxes on all these, showing that the fields are in the class of arid land and cannot be sown by the lessees of public land nor otherwise yield revenue. It is reported, whether they are truly in the category of dry land and not able to be sown by the public farmers nor otherwise yield revenue, and I am recording it out of this (Category of) land as well as out of the (category of) productive land. Of the cleruchic garden of Didyme, the daughter of Eubios, townswoman, in which <arourai?> are date palms and young shoots entirely cankered, 2 1/8 arourai.

Fragment i = Sijpesteijn, fragment L = Worrell, fragment f? Fragment j = Sijpesteijn, fragments E + I = Worrell, fragments g (taken the other way up) + l.
