The Apollonios addressed is identified in the records as the strategos (nome governor), probably the well-known Apollonios of the early 2nd century AD, though the text itself does not give his title.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Prescritto di una lettera di Ammonios ed Ermokles allo strategos Apollonios). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
