Sale of a donkey Post-consulate of Flavius Antonius and Flavius Syagrius [383]
Description
Record of the sale of a donkey from Egypt, written on papyrus. Sale is by Aurelius Psenpnouthes, son of Horos and Tapsois from Kellis in the Great Oasis to someone whose name begins with "Aurelius" from the same village. The male donkey changes hands in a city for 21,500 talents. Since Aurelius Psenpnouthes is illiterate, the subscription is written for him by Aurelius Apollos, son of Apollos, from the same village. Dated in the post-consulate of Flavius Antonius and Flavius Syagrius (383 A.D.)
