Type of Text/Title of Work
Order for Arrest (?)
Content
Aristandros, whose function can’t be ascertained, but who is certain to have been higher in rank than the ephodoi as he can issue this order, tells the ephodoi of Psobthis to arrest three men he has sent away (either from imprisonment or as officials, concerning whom facts have come to light to justify their arrest) if they meet them. From this last addition it may perhaps be inferred that similar orders have also been sent to other places.
Persons
Pethonis, son of Horos;
Dionysios, son of Harpaesis;
Pausiris, son of Petesiris;
Aristandros.
Geographica
Psobthis
Translation
To the ephodoi of Psobthis. I have sent away Pethonis, son of Horos, and Dionysios, son of Harpaesis and Pausiris, son of Petesiris. Arrest (?) them, if you meet them. Aristandros.
