English Translation

Eudaimonis to Apollonios,

Notes

The text is fragmentary and incomplete in places, making a full translation difficult. The main body of the letter clearly expresses a mother's affectionate greeting and wishes for the well-being of her son Apollonios, his wife Aline, and their children. The final lines appear incomplete and possibly reference another individual named Ionas and a title "strategos," indicating a military or administrative context.
