Fragments of a draft letter TM 316746(Arsinoites ?)Between 250 and 150 B.C.

Two small fragments of what is catalogued as the draft of a letter, written in Greek in Ptolemaic Egypt, probably in the Arsinoite nome, around the end of the 3rd century BC. Only isolated words survive, mentioning something owed, a failure to prevent something, and a 2nd regnal year.

In English machine translation

The identification as a letter draft rests on the catalogue, perhaps partly on the scribe's deletions; the surviving text is too broken to confirm it. One record gives a broader date range of 250 to 150 BC.
