Small fragment of a Greek letter from the mid-3rd century BC, with a health formula and a mention of a man called Ariston. Only scattered phrases survive, so its business cannot be recovered.
The word katerga can mean wages, hire charges or the cost of labour, so its sense here is uncertain. The text probably belongs to the Zenon archive, but no place is given in the records.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
