Fragment of a will drawn up as a declaration (homologia) by a woman named Thasion, daughter of Horion, acting with her kinsman Sarapion son of Alkimos as guardian. She sets out what is to happen after her death, including provision if an heir does not survive her. It probably comes from the Arsinoite nome, AD 118-244.
