Letter from Pekysis to Zenon

(13th November, 250 B.C.)

A fragmentary and badly preserved letter about a stathmos, about which Zenon had written in the belief that it was occupied by Philon. Pekysis apparently replies that the peasants who used to live in it and who had gone away have now come back and reoccupied it.
