A small fragment of a Greek letter from the Zenon archive at Philadelphia in the Arsinoite nome, mid-3rd century BC. Only isolated words survive, including a reference to someone who "will open" something and a period of days.

In English machine translation

[...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] nothing [...] [...] I on the one hand [...] [...] for the rest (?) [...] [...] will open the [...] [...] of me [...] [...] him [...] [...] of days [...]

Too little survives to identify the sender, the recipient or the subject; the classification as a letter rests on the catalogue record.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Brief). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
