Commentary

This fragmentary papyrus text appears to be a dating formula from Roman Egypt, specifically mentioning Emperor Domitian (81–96 CE). It references the Arsinoite nome (modern Fayum region) and the Herakleides division, indicating a geographical and administrative context. The mention of "under the right cheek" (ὑπὸ μῆλον δεξιὸν) suggests possibly a description of a physical mark or injury. The name "Satabous" is likely a personal name or place name. Due to the fragmentary nature, the exact context remains uncertain.
