Fragmentary report from two keepers of the property archives (bibliophylakes) of the Oxyrhynchite nome, Aurelius Zenon son of Melas and a colleague, to the former logistes Valerius Ammonianus alias Gerontius and the strategos Aurelius Eudaimon alias Helladios. They reply to an instruction concerning Aurelius Marinus Eusebius and a Valerius; the rest is lost. It dates to about AD 320 at Oxyrhynchus.

The bibliophylakes kept the registers of property ownership (enktesis archive). The consular date is largely restored, hence the uncertain year.
