Official letter
Description
Official letter concerning honeste missi (missikii), written from some higher official. Mention of strategoi. At the end four crosses (XXXX) in the middle of the line, signifying perhaps "forty"? According to Daris S P.Oslo inv.1451 and P.Fouad 21, l. 11-16 are identical in expression and are perhaps copies of the same document, and SB VIII 9668 prints Daris' new version of the text and describes it as an "Official document concerning the legal position of dismissed soldiers".
