Letter from Menas to George
Description
In this letter after an elaborate preface the defensor of Cynopolis asks George to have certain allowances accruing to the holders of his office paid over to a third person, who, he hoped, would forward part of them. The reference to the antigeouchos as ho koinos despotes is significant of the position both of that functionary and his employers.
