Description

Amyntas sends Dexilaos with a letter to Apollonios about expenses and asks Zenon to deliver the letter and send back the messenger at once, presumably with money or with an order on the bank. Inside the letter was found a clay sealing with an indistinct representation of a man to right, wearing a conical hat.
