EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
[recto] Panoup to Taeiom his wife, very many greetings. […] come away from me (?); truly there is no quarrel between us. I gave you a blanket and minas of old (wool?) and a large cushion […] and there are found with you 400 drachmas […] Menas, being ill and needing yesterday to come by himself to you, and friends […] and donkeys for hire; then he went off to bring the man […] to you […] and up to five minas until summer […] you neglect it because he went away, if indeed […]. But I give and I do not care either about the four minas; for you ought not to talk about what he did to you. So if there is a quarrel between us, write back to me and he will see what has happened; but if not, come alone, since there is no quarrel; for I am not coming, as I am busy. Since he came to you he has brought up to 40 drachmas of the wage of the one coming to you. I pray for your health for many years. [verso] Deliver to Taeiom, his wife, from Panoup her husband.

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.
