Fragmentary letter from Sarapammon to Heroninos, whom he addresses as "father", from the Heroninos archive at Theadelphia in the Arsinoite nome. It mentions sending something, apparently a pack animal, and refers to "the lord" and "brother Alypios", but most of the content is lost.

Sarapammon to Heroninos his father, greetings.

Heroninos was manager of a Theadelphia estate owned by Aurelius Appianus, and Alypios was a senior administrator of that estate. "Father" and "brother" are probably courtesy titles; "badist-" probably refers to a walking donkey (badistes), but the word is broken.
