Letter from Aristeus to Apollonios

(About 26th October, 258 B.C.)

Aristeus, an employee in the household of Apollonios, informs his master that, by order of Amyntas, he has paid the wages of the servants left behind in Alexandria. A clay sealing was found loose inside this letter. It bore a representation of Athena Promachos to right, with shield and spear.
