Fragmentary petition from Aurelius Theodoros to a praepositus, complaining that he was beaten and left half-dead by people to whom he owed nothing. It is dated 22 September 343, probably from Philadelphia in the Arsinoite nome, and belongs to the Abinnaeus archive.
The consuls' names appear in the Greek in garbled form (Phrorios Plakitos, Phromollos) for Furius Placidus and Romulus. The praepositus is presumably Flavius Abinnaeus, commander at Dionysias.
