Order for Payment of Money

Abstract

The document transcribed on this papyrus fragment is written on the recto, across the fibers, charta transversa Margins, or portions of them, appear to be preserved at top, bottom, and left, but the document is torn at the right. The piece has probably broken at the place where it was folded. On the coarse and badly damaged verso, at right angles to the lines of writing on the recto (top right recto = top right verso) — and therefore also across the fibers — appear the beginnings of some eight lines of writing, of which I have been able to read only a very few letters.
