A small fragment of a Coptic ostracon from Thebes, apparently a letter, mentioning wheat that is lacking, something given, a garment, and the whole mountain. Too little survives to establish the context.
The readings are very uncertain. "The mountain" (ptoou) in Theban Coptic texts usually refers to the desert area of the western necropolis where monastic settlements lay, and "ⲉⲡⲣⲱ" may be for "the winter".
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
