Letter from Apollonios to Zenon

(1st July, 256 B.C.)

Apollonios approves the distribution of Milesian wool to the slave-girls in Memphis, and tells Zenon to give orders to let them have as much as they need. The wool came from a flock of Milesian sheep which Apollonios owned in the Fayoum and the girls were employed in a wool factory beloning to him in Memphis.
