p.oxy.51.3601 Oxyrhynchos

To Ammonianus, royal scribe, acting strategus, through Ptolemaios, deputy […] from […] also called Hierakiaina, daughter of Hierax, former strategus of the Diospolite nome of Lesser Thebaid. In response to the schedule sent by the administrator of the eklogistia of the nome, arising from the assize of Maecius Laetus, the most illustrious prefect, concerning certain former strategi as not having handed over the outgoing books, among whom is also my father Hierax son of Dionysios, former strategus of the Diospolite nome, I declare that the books of the office were handed over to the man who was strategus after him, in accordance with the letter written by Alpheios, the most excellent former procurator of the ousiac estates […] of which this is a copy: "Alpheios to the strategus of the Oxyrhynchite nome. Of the letter written to me […] Hierax, former strategus of the Diospolite nome of Lesser Thebaid, I ordered the copy to be sent to you, so that, since he submitted a letter of Apollonios, who was strategus after Hierax, acknowledging that he had received the books of the office, you may see to it that no innovation is made concerning their revenues on the basis of the earlier instructions. I pray for your health. Year 3, Mesore 10." Thus far the letter. So that you may know and may append these very facts to the schedule that was forwarded, I make this clear to you. Year 11 of the Emperors Caesars Lucius Septimius Severus Pius Pertinax Arabicus Adiabenicus Parthicus Maximus and Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Pius, Augusti, and Publius Septimius Geta Caesar Augustus, Hathyr 2.
