A small fragment of a bilingual Latin and Greek document that repeatedly names a certain Flavius Taurus Iovinus. It may come from court proceedings before a magistrate of that name, but too little survives to be sure.
One editor dated the text to the 5th century AD and another to the 6th. The repeated name in Latin alongside Greek phrases is typical of minutes of court proceedings, which is the suggested interpretation.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Text of Uncertain Nature). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
