Among the sixteen Ptolemaic texts (33–44) from the collection of the Greek papyri of the Department of Classics at Stanford are petitions, official correspondence, letters, a declaration of surety with royal oath – one the earliest dated texts in the collection (227 bc) – and an account. Most notable is the discovery of the upper part of P. K öln VI 261, a petition to the oikonomos Apollonios (33 + 18) about oil-contraband and prisoners of war. Another petition is addressed to the oikonomos Poseidonios (Prosopographia Ptolemaica I/VIII 1079) about the wool tax (34), while 35, a draft written with an Egyptian rush, reports an effraction at night with arson. The official correspondence deals with tax-farming and oil-bearing products.

The paper offers an edition of the agoranomic sale P. Cair. Cat. 10368 originating from Pathyris and dated in 113 bc. Despite its fragmentary state of preservation, it provides interesting onomastic information and mentions a relatively rarely attested unit of measurement, embadon.
