Fragment of a notarial contract drawn up through the record office (agoranomeion) in the fifth year of Severus Alexander. It involves a man named Protarchos, a town councillor and former exegetes, property inherited under the will of Timandros, and a location near the Anoubieion; the verso preserves names such as Artemidora.

In English machine translation

[recto] In the fifth year of Imperator [Caesar Marcus Aurelius Severus Alexander] Pius Felix [Augustus, in the time of the priests in office in Alexandria and the other] usual [officials, in the month …, through the overseers] of the agoranomeion of Ag[ema …] Protarchos … scar on the shin […] councillor, former exegetes, [registered in the] former [quarter of] the Two Horus (?) […] of those (passing) to him from […] of Timandros also called Ad[…] by will, which has also been opened […] near the Anoubieion […] neighbours as [they themselves declared …] former gymnasiarch […] [… lines lost …] [verso] […] Artemidora An[…] […] Artemid[…] […] aged 20 […] […]

The opening formula with priests in Alexandria is typical of Alexandrian-style agoranomic contracts; the exact transaction type is lost. The scar on the shin belongs to the physical description identifying a party.
