Papyrus 113.1A-Papyrus 113.1B: A sixth-century document concerning a lawsuit between Delmatius alias Valentinus, son of Phoebammon, a soldier of the rank of the standard-bearer, and Aurelius Valentinus, son of Licinianus. Delmatius had sold a fifth part of his inheritance from his father to Valentinus; he later realised that the price he had asked was less than the real value, and asked either to annul the sale or have the difference paid. Valentinus finally agreed to pay six solidi more. With autograph signatures of the two parties involved and of seven witnesses and with the notarial subscription at the end. Papyrus 113.1A contains lines 1-64 of the text, Papyrus 113.1B lines 65-121; the left-hand side fragment from top in Papyrus 113.1A preserves the beginning of lines 2-4, with a trace of line 5; the upper fragment has the mid part of three lines.
