EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
To my lord father Abinnaeus, Apollos. Before all else I pray to God Almighty that you, in good health together with your household, may receive my letter. As you wrote to me to go into Alexandria and find out what the ever-remembered Isas received from the hostess (?) of your house, I found that he had received, on the strength of your letter, 232 myriads, and he gave a receipt in his own hand for them to the hostess. So look, I have sent you also the receipt that Isas gave for the 232 myriads, and the whole account of the house and of the bread rations. From the month of Pharmouthi Piste took over your house and the loaves up to now; for Isas joined those in the fields (?) and handed it over to Piste. And Isas also received again from […]aleios, on the strength of your letter, 50 myriads and 2 jars of wine. I greet you all by name. I pray for your health for many years. [Address] Deliver to Abinnaeus, from Apollos.

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
  • 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 — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
