A writing exercise copying the opening address of a petition to Lucius Mussius Aemilianus, acting prefect of Egypt, from Aurelius Theoninos alias Aphynchis, son of Dioskoros and Taaphynchis. It comes from Oxyrhynchus.
Mussius Aemilianus was acting prefect of Egypt around AD 257-259, which suggests a mid-3rd-century date. The misspelling 'hegeemonian' fits a practice copy, and only the heading of the petition is written.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Schreibübung: Adressformel einer Petition). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
