Opening lines of a document from the Hermopolite nome, dated by the post-consulship of Flavius Longinus (AD 487-488) and the 11th indiction. It is addressed to a Flavius, a distinguished councillor, and mentions a late Kallinikos; the content is lost.

In English machine translation

† After the consulship of Flavius Longinus, vir clarissimus, […] 27, 11th indiction. To Flavius […], the most illustrious and venerable councillor (?) […] of blessed memory Kallinikos … […]

Longinus was consul in 486, so the post-consular date with the 11th indiction points to 487-488. The text breaks off after the address, so its type cannot be determined.
