[… lines lost …] […] [and I am ready to] pay [this to you] wh[enever you wish] […] without any dispute or evasion, you having the right of execution from […] as if by a court judgment. This written acknowledgment of debt is valid and binding […] with the subscription of Aurelius [Pachom]sais, who signs on my behalf, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent. I, Aurelius Kolobos son of Pakeus, the aforementioned vinedresser, owe you and am indebted to you […] on account of an advance the aforementioned 2 gold solidi, and I will repay whenever you wish, and I have agreed as stated above. I, Aurelius Aphthonios son of Pachomsais, physician, from the same city, wrote on his behalf, he being present and having dictated, since he does not know letters.

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.
