a sale of land end of IIIrd century A.D.
Description
This papyrus contains the latter part of an acknowledgement of a sale of two and a half arouras of land for the price of 370 drachmas by two brothers, Aurelius Aion and Aurelius Pharitas. The contract ends with the usual guarantees, including the guarantee of the prior right of payment to the fiscus. The signature, written by a scribe for the illiterate brothers, includes the stipulation that the past taxes in grain and money remain the responsibility of the sellers, with no time limit specified.

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
