                "description": "P.Bingen 121: Letter to Apa Antinos. \r\nComplete sheet of papyrus containing a letter addressed, with great deference, by two officers, the praepositus Pergamios and the princeps Eulogios, to their &ldquo;beloved and most pious&rdquo; Apa Antinos. They inform him that his request to withdraw a certain Horos from the service of the agraria in the Oasis has been approved &ndash; Apa Antinos had apparently interceded for Horos on grounds that he was a humble man and an old soldier. The officers apologise for the lack of soldiers, saying they would have taken him only out of necessity, but as soon as they received the letter of the Apa, they released him from the journey. In the end, they ask the Apa to mention them in his holy prayers.\r\nThe agraria is a guard service outside the military camps in casual lodgings. The soldiers mentioned here could possibly belong to the legio V Macedonica stationed in Memphis, and their guard may have served the Little Oasis: the journey there was certainly a burden (Gascou and Pintaudi 2020: 516-517).\r\nAnother letter, from the same period, sent to a holy man (Apa Iohannes) to help exempt someone from the army is P.Herm. 7.\r\nFor an Apa Aiantinos (Antinos?) in \"the monastery (mone) of Ankyronites\", see also SB VIII 9683, 11-12.\r\n&nbsp;\r\nRecto: The text runs parallel with the fibres in a legible cursive hand, although phonetic spellings and paratactic syntax make it sometimes difficult to understand the details; two different hands wrote the final greetings. The bottom part of the sheet seems to have been repaired in ancient times.\r\nVerso: Address, parallel with the fibres, in the same hand as the body of the letter.",
