Translation
|
1 | | To Santobithys, chief bodyguard and strategos, |
2 | | from Esoroeris son of Petoseiris, descendant.|
3 | | I am wronged by Neoptolemos son of Neoptolemos, |
4 | | whose fatherland I do not know, one of the soldiers posted |
5 | | at Syene. A house belongs to me in |
6 | | the fortress of Syene and he is billeted there. |
7 | | Although before this time I was |
8 | | unreproached by him, now in the month of Mecheir of year 33, |
9 | | having contrived an argument with me deliberately, |
10 | | for a time he was reviling me very shamefully, but then, |
11 | | going beyond the law, he broke apart the ceiling of the |
12 | | dwelling above so that I would always be spattered with dust. |
13 | | Not content with that, using the |
14 | | villainous behavior typical of him, seizing me in the |
15 | | courtyard, they were beating me with numerous blows to every |
16 | | part of my body in the presence of some of those in --- |
17 | | ---. And because on account of this |
18 | | issue, I have moved? to the Ombite (nome) to [---] |
19 | | [---] and [---] |
20 | | [---] he insults/violates me against the good order. |
21 | | But because you have [come] to the area as a help |
22 | | to the one who has been wronged, I request, if you please, |
23 | | [---] us, that from the [---|
24 | | [---] investigation I may obtain what is right. |
25 | | Farewell.
