Fragmentary remains of what appear to be extracts of official correspondence or reports concerning a temple matter in Memphis, mentioning a chief prophet, a person under medical treatment, a 2nd regnal year and something Greek. It dates to the late 2nd century and probably comes from the Memphite region.

The century is not specified in the records as BC or AD; the word read as "-orapeias" may refer to a Sarapis sanctuary or cult, but this is uncertain. Column 2 and the verso preserve only the beginnings or ends of lines.
