Fragment of an application or similar document from the village of Talao in the Oxyrhynchite nome, mentioning a Cornelius Ptolemaios and submitted by Aurelius Ptollarion and Aurelius Pamenes. It is dated by the regnal years of the tetrarchic emperors to 15 July 306, and its execution was handled by a certain Chairemon son of Paeieus.
The opening words "it is as follows" suggest this is a copy of a document quoted within a larger text. The dating formula combines Year 14 and Year 2 for the emperors and Caesars of the Tetrarchy.
