Fragments of a series of letters
Description
Fragments of a series of letters, which may be copies or carefully prepared drafts. Those on the recto refer to the Palestinian period of Zenon's career. The second letter in column 1 speaks of Bethanath and Joppa, while the first in column 2 seems to be about a consignment of frankincense and myrrh. Those on the verso mention Philadelphia, and the second letter is perhaps concerned with the work of the quarrymen there.

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
