A short business note from Ischyrion to Heroninos, estate manager at Theadelphia, instructing him to give the usual fodder to 14 camels accompanying Polykarpos and Protys. It belongs to the Heroninos archive of the mid-3rd century AD.
In the address the scribe deleted 'Dionysias' and wrote 'Thraso', apparently correcting the name of the estate unit Heroninos managed. The Greek construction of 'escorting' is ambiguous; the camels may instead be escorted by Polykarpos and Protys.
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 - Ischyrion). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
