"Sarapius, greetings to Poseidonios. In the current month, to Meian, so that to the farmers, having found a lizard, in the silos and remaining through us, the seals of some parts taken and the emptied silos from the previously given to the farmers of seeds and the foot [of the lizard]. As we were inquiring about the treasures, he said that some had been taken, concerning which neither he himself explained to us the time nor did he declare to us the names of these things, otherwise he said that he was compelled to [do something]. If it seems to you, let it be written to the archiving official of the village to secure the [treasures] until you arrive at these places, to make the inspection concerning these things, [and] to be [informed] about the [officials] and the village head, and to indicate to you concerning these things. Farewell."
