Draft of a petition to the katholikos [348]
Description
Draft of a petition from Panopolis (modern name: Ahkmim), Egypt, written on papyrus. Draft 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 in Alexandria. Ammon claims the three female Phoenician slaves left by his brother Harpokration, rhetor and panegyrist in Alexandria with his landlord Konon. According to Aurelius Aetios, Ammon's brother died abroad on a trip through Greece, Rome and Constantinople. Afterwards, Eugeneios, an imperial secretary, claimed the three slaves as having no other legal owner and secured the imperial permission to do so at some expense (Serenianus son of Palladios told Ammon)
