Fragmentary list of persons, including slaves and a freedman TM 89159This document was discovered in a Roman dump at Berenike.A.D. 50 - 75

Three small fragments of an ostracon from a Roman dump at Berenike on the Red Sea, dated AD 50-75. They preserve mostly personal names (Apion, Sarapias, Didymion) along with words for travel on foot, slaves and a freedman, and probably come from a list of persons or an account.

In English machine translation

The first word, 'on foot', may refer to a traveller or to a category of person in a pass or customs context, but the text is too broken to say. The words read as 'slave' and 'freedman' are abbreviated or broken, so their exact forms are uncertain.
