Deed of mediation (P.Lond.Copt. 446, TM 47751)
- Scope & Content:
- The text is of legal nature, a deed of mediation. The issuer might be a person named Cyros. It is fragmentary, therefore, the contents are vague. Patermoute`s (=Patermouthis) mother is mentioned, and “your wife, Tapia”, then a recurring word seems to be “imprisonment/imprisoning someone”. The text contains no date.
