Fragment from a papyrus roll, written on the recto along the fibres. The verso is blank. Portions of two columns survive, separated by an intercolumn of c. 15 mm. The first column consists of 6 lines, the second of 7 lines.
The light-brown papyrus preserves only the top (15 mm) margin; it is mounted on cardboard in a glass case.
