Title | Draft of a petition [not before 348] |
---|---|
Author | Ammon, Scholasticus, of Panopolis |
Summary | Draft of a petition from Panopolis (modern name: Akhmim), Egypt, written on papyrus. Petition is written by Ammon, the well-known scholastikos, or lawyer, and his daughter to the praefectus Aegypti or prefect of Egypt. Petition is against a man who has repeatedly encroached on the land of Ammon himself and of the orphaned child(ren) of his daughter. His daughter's husband Helladios has died, and she now manages the property through a tenant. The accused planted a vineyard on part of the property while Ammon was in Panopolis and could not go out in the fields because of his illness and his age. Ammon stresses the fact that other land of his is not productive either because it cannot be watered. Papyrus belongs to the archive of Ammon |
