The end of a bilingual private contract in Greek and Latin concerning a delivery of goods, possibly a transport or an advance-paid sale. Only the closing obligation, the validity and stipulation clauses in Greek, and a Latin subscription by Flavius Sallustius survive. It dates to the 3rd century AD; its place of origin is unknown.
