Draft of a petition to the katholikos [between 348 Dec. 9 and 348 Dec. 13]
Description
Draft of a petition from Panopolis (modern name: Akhmim), Egypt, written on papyrus. Petition is written by Ammon, the well-known scholastikos, or lawyer, to Flavius Sisinnius katholikos, a high official in Alexandria. Drawn up between Dec. 9 and Dec. 13, 348 A.D. in Alexandria. Ammon claims the three female Phoenician slaves left by his brother Harpokration rhetor and panegyrist in Alexandria. His brother died on a trip through Greece, Rome and Constantinople. Afterwards, Eugeneios, a clerk at the chancellory, claimed the three slaves as having no other legal owner and secured the imperial permission to do so at some expense
