Fragment of proceedings (?) mentioning the gymnasiarchy and the Sarapeion TM 32049Hermopolis (Hermopolites, Ägypten)253 - 268

A small fragment from Hermopolis, dated AD 253-268, possibly from the minutes of a court hearing. It mentions Hermodoros, a man named Ptolemas, a promise or undertaking, the office of gymnasiarch, the Sarapeion (temple of Sarapis), a period of three years and a priest.

In English machine translation

The identification as court proceedings is tentative. The 'undertaking' (hyposchesis) may refer to a formal promise to assume a liturgy or office such as the gymnasiarchy.
