Commentary

Restored on the basis of the text of M.196; the dating elements are restored from that text, on the basis of the other phrasing.

For texts recording Trajan's work on the roads see, for the Cyrene to Ptolemais road see M.196 and M.200; for the Cyrene to Apollonia Road, see C.609, M.222, M.224, and, a later text, M.227.
