The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →
A very fragmentary ostracon letter from Didymoi, a Roman fort on the desert road in Egypt's Eastern Desert, sent by Kylindros to someone whose name is lost. Only the greeting and the start of a name, Psen[…], survive.

The record files this text under the official post of the desert road, but too little survives to confirm its purpose.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as La poste officielle). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
