Claudius Terentianus

Claudius Terentianus was an Egyptian enrolled in the Roman army. He was the author of a number of papyrus-letters, mostly addressed to his father Claudius Tiberianus, a veteran settled in Karanis, Egypt. They were found in that village in 1928-29 during excavations conducted by the University of Michigan. Specifically, the letters were found in a house identified as C/B167, located near the center of the town, beneath a staircase on the ground floor in a niche.
