A small fragment of a Greek document from Roman Egypt, addressed to Aurelius Aristandros, mentioning a son of Nikon, four arouras of land, and something located within a fort. Its exact nature cannot be determined, though it may concern land, perhaps a lease or a related application.

In English machine translation

[…] […] to Aurelius Aristandros […] […] son of Nikon […] […] four arouras […] within the fort

The aroura is an Egyptian land measure of about 0.27 hectares. The address to Aurelius Aristandros and the mention of land suggest a lease offer or application, but too little survives to be sure.
