Fragment of a letter addressed to a beloved son TM 220237Theben

A small fragment of a Coptic ostracon from the Theban region, apparently the end of a letter, closing with a greeting "in the Lord" and an address to a "beloved son". Too little survives to reconstruct the content.

The address formula "give it to my beloved son … through …" is typical of Coptic letters from western Thebes; the names are lost.
