Abstract
How this text, written transversa charta like 16, may relate to Ammon’s other petitions of A.D. 348 is not clear, since its phrasing so far as it is preserved provides no parallels with other texts in the archive. That it is a petition (probably to the prefect, see line 11 n.) is assured by άξιŵ at line 11. That it is related to the case concerning Harpocration’s slaves seems indicated by Ammon’s familiar draft-hand and by the presence on the verso of a section of Ammon’s principal petition to the catholicus (15). The cause of this appeal is not apparent.
