There is a high percentage of letters among Arabic documentary material. The vast majority of them remain unpublished, however. This article presents the edition, translation, and commentary of two as yet unpublished business letters currently kept at the Egyptian Museum in Berlin. The first was sent to solicit help with some calculations and to stress the importance of the results ( P.Berl.inv . 8582), and the second was sent to grant a monk permission to join the harvest ( P.Berl.inv . 6746 verso)
