Sale of the slave woman Mousa by Laodike to Philotera TM 18504Alexandria (Ägypten)

[recto] To Protarchos, the official in charge of the court, from Philotera daughter of Antiochos, citizen, with her guardian, and from Laodike daughter of Lysias, Macedonian, with her guardian her brother Marcus Sulpicius Protarchos, concerning the matters in dispute. Laodike agrees that she has received from Philotera, from hand to hand out of the house, the agreed capital sum, and that she has ceded to her the slave woman belonging to her named Mousa, born in Egypt, whose age and description are set out below, whom Philotera has also taken over free of any claim, except for epilepsy and seizure (?), having paid the tax on slaves. Philotera herself is to hold and own the slave and to cede her to others and to deal with her as she wishes, and no claim on the slave is to be left to Laodike or to anyone else on her behalf; and she is to guarantee her and to repel at once any claimant at her own expense; and if she transgresses any of these terms, besides the agreed terms remaining valid, she is further to pay to Philotera the capital sum plus half again, and the damages and expenses, and in addition as penalty 500 drachmas of silver and the prescribed fine, as if by a court judgment; but flight and death of the slave from now on are not Laodike's responsibility. Philotera has returned the security which she held in her own favour. The slave Mousa is about 35 years old, of medium height, honey-coloured complexion, long-faced, straight-nosed, with a scar on the chin on the left.
