Fragment of a contract, probably a sale, preserving parts of the seller's guarantee clause against all claims and taxes, a penalty payable also to the public treasury, and a physical description of one of the parties. It dates to the 2nd or 3rd century AD.

The clauses are standard formulas of Greco-Egyptian sale contracts, restored largely from parallels. The description (squint, joined eyebrows, scar) identifies a contracting party, as was customary.
