Application to the archidikastes concerning a loan of 900 drachmas TM 9585Karanis (Arsinoites)

In English machine translation

The archidikastes was the Alexandrian official who registered private contracts; such applications typically asked for a handwritten loan contract to be made public and enforceable. The text has many corrections and shifts from third to first person, suggesting a draft; the reference to the deified Trajan dates it after his death (AD 117).
