Small fragment of what appears to be a sale contract, mentioning a former exegetes (a city magistrate), a village, a person from Herakleopolis with an age description, boundaries of a property and a temple, and the buyer's right of ownership. It comes from the Herakleopolite nome in the first half of the 3rd century AD.
