A
fragment of the left-hand side of a diptych containing the beginning of a draft
or copy of a letter from Flavius Cerialis. The hand could well be the same as
that which wrote 235 and perhaps 233. The
spacing suggests that the traces below the name probably belong to the first
line of the body of the letter.
