A fragmentary extract from the official minutes of a hearing held at Antinoopolis in the 3rd century AD. An advocate named Calpurnius, prytanis-designate, speaks on behalf of one Ofellius about a ruling on the nomination of persons, probably to civic offices or liturgies.

[margin] … [recto] From the minutes […] In Antinoopolis […] […] Calpurnius […] advocate, prytanis-designate […] "I speak on behalf of Ofellius […] […] to those […] when […] nothing else […] you declared that in the case of those [who nominated] the nominations should take place […] […] and put to the vote (?) […] […] nominate (?) […] [verso] […]

"Nominations" (probolai) refers to the formal naming of candidates for compulsory public services or offices; the restoration "who nominated" is the editor's. A syndikos was an advocate representing a party or the city council.
