A covering letter from Aurelius Eud[…], strategos of the Herakleides division of the Arsinoite nome, to the keeper of the public records, sending him documents of his office for filing. It dates to the 3rd century AD and probably comes from Ptolemais Euergetis (Arsinoe).
The bibliophylax of the public records (bibliophylax demosion logon) kept official documents in the nome archive. The word describing the documents sent is damaged and its meaning is uncertain.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Corrispondenza amministrativa da Aurelius Eud-, strategos, ad un bibliophylax). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
