A small fragment of a Greek document from the Arsinoite nome, dated to the seventeenth regnal year of an emperor (AD 208-209). It mentions a division (meris) of the nome, a woman acting with her guardian, and a man named Heron; its purpose cannot be determined.

The year 17 fits the reign of Septimius Severus and Caracalla, giving AD 208-209. The reference to a woman acting "with her guardian" (kyrios) suggests a contract or official declaration, but too little survives to be sure.
