Fragment of a deed of manumission from Oxyrhynchus, dated in the reign of an emperor styled Caesar Augustus Germanicus (AD 37-69). A man connected with one Apollonios frees two slave women, one also called Aphrodite, 'under Zeus, Earth and Sun', with physical descriptions of the parties.

In English machine translation

The formula 'under Zeus, Earth and Sun' is typical of manumissions by oath at Oxyrhynchus. The imperial titulature could fit Caligula, Claudius or Nero, hence the broad date.
