520 1 $a"In the early fourth century, a lawyer and public figure from the Nile valley city of Hermopolis made a six-month business-related journey to Antioch. The day-to-day details are preserved on papyrus documents and offer a remarkable record of this journey, covering everything from distances traveled to daffy food purchases, from medicinal supplies to fees paid for services." "In this book, the classicist and historian John Matthews translates these important documents and places them in the wider context of the social history of the Graeco-Roman world."--BOOK JACKET.
