A tiny fragment of a Greek papyrus from Roman Egypt preserving only scattered phrases, including a mention of something being taken and of robbers. Its original purpose cannot be determined.
The mention of robbers and something taken might suggest a petition about a theft, but too little survives to be sure.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Divers et incertains). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
