The opening of a document, probably a contract, dated by the regnal year of the emperor Macrinus and written at Ptolemais Euergetis in the Arsinoite nome. Only the dating formula and place survive.
In English machine translation
Year 2 of Marcus Aurelius Severus Macrinus […] Parthicus Maximus, Britannicus Maximus, Germanicus Maximus, Pius, Augustus; at Ptolemais Euergetis of the Arsinoite nome […]
[…]
The titulature is odd for Macrinus: titles like Britannicus and Germanicus Maximus belong to Caracalla, and the scribe seems to have carried them over. The name 'Severus' was also used by Macrinus himself.
