Petition to the prefect quoting an earlier petition to the epistrategos TM 78584Oxyrhynchos26. Apr. - 25. Mai 197

Fragmentary petition to the prefect of Egypt, Quintus Aemilius Saturninus, from a man of Oxyrhynchus, quoting an earlier petition he had sent to the epistrategos Calpurnius Concessus. It concerns the secretary of the collectors of grain dues and apparently some fraud affecting the imperial treasury.

In English machine translation

The petitioner's name is lost; only the ending of his father's name (Herakles or Heraklas) survives. The 'praktores sitikoi' were local officials responsible for collecting taxes in grain.
