Letter of a Non - Greek Complaining about Wages and Contemptuous Treatment 256 BCE – 255 BCEPhiladelphia (Arsinoites)
Description
In a letter to Zenon the writer complains that he was badly treated by Krotos in Syria and by Jason in Philadelphia: both men failed to give him what was due to him because he was a non- Greek and could not speak (or act) like a Greek; he asks Zenon to request his assistants to treat him with more consideration

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
