Fragment of a private Latin letter in which the writer asks the recipient to buy something and hand it over to a man named Syneros, apparently in connection with someone called Sambathas. It dates to the 1st or 2nd century AD.
In English machine translation
[…] […] […]
that (I?) had sent word because of
Sambathas (?)
so see to it that
you buy and
hand over (it)
to Syneros
"Sambatha" may be a personal name (Sambathas, common among Jews in Egypt) or refer to the Sabbath; the object to be bought is lost.
