(i) Emisathis, customary companion of Philokomos. (ii) Itaialan. (iii) Year 15: Nikandros A-. (iv) Eukleitos. (v) [A]ribbas, friend of Bosulios. (vi) Year 16: Archibios P- year 55.
Commentary
Oliverio read a different distribution of the lines.
i: See commentary on T.27
iv: Fraser, reading Εὔκλειτ̣ο̣ς̣, took this line with v, and suggested that Aribbas was the father.
v: For this monogram see on P.26.
vi: Year 55 (Actian) would be 24 CE; year 16 of Tiberius would be 28 or 30, so these appear to be consecutive texts.
