• Resumen

  • This contribution attempts to reconstruct the historical context in which the Alexandrian oration contained in PSI X 1160 took place. It tackles the evidence of an Augustan suppression of the Alexandrian (and eventually of other) city councils in Egypt and examines the relationship between PSI X 1160 and the Letter of Claudius to the Alexandrians, P.Lond. VI 1912. It also presents some chronological, palaeographical and prosopographical aspects which may help to place the embassy in PSI X 1160 at the very beginning of the reign of Claudius.
