Extracts from proceedings on the guardianship of orphans TM 22574unbekannt

Fragment of extracts from legal proceedings concerning the guardianship of orphans. In an earlier hearing the prefect Sulpicius Similis agrees with a speaker and promises to appoint another guardian in his place; a second extract, dated to year 17 of Antoninus (Pius), records a petition by Taphous daughter of Psenosiris about the guardianship of the orphans.

In English machine translation

Sulpicius Similis was prefect of Egypt around AD 107-112, so the first extract cites an older precedent used in a later case. Year 17 of Antoninus Pius corresponds to AD 153/154.
