Commentary

Apparently a fragment from a decree of honours to one or more benefactors.

Line 2: The koine form of language is unlikely in a civic decree at this date; the text may, therefore, express the gratitude of an organised group within the city, such as the Jewish politeuma (for which, at Berenike see B.75 and B.76). See for a possibly similar document at Cyrene C.39.
