Fragment of a letter from Harpalos to Heroninos, saying he has forwarded something as instructed, apparently by a camel driver. It belongs to the Heroninos archive from Theadelphia in the Arsinoite nome, AD 249-268.

In English machine translation

[recto] Harpalos to his dearest Heroninos, greeting. I have sent on to you, as […]es instructed, by means of the camel-driver (?) […] […] [… lines lost …] [verso] Deliver to Heroninos […]

Heroninos was manager (phrontistes) of the Theadelphia unit of the Appianus estate. The reading 'camel-driver' depends on a damaged word.

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