Zenamounis son of Petereus, from the village of Berenikis Thesmophorou of the division of Polemon, and Petesouchos son of Simos, from the quarter of the Sacred Gate, and Sarapion son of Alexas, we three fishermen and lessees (?) of the marsh-thicket of the village of Theadelphia.
We swear by the fortune of the Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius that we will work in the aforesaid marsh-thicket from the day written below, which is the 5th of the present month Pharmouthi, and that Zenamounis will produce his own children for fishing and selling, and Petesouchos likewise; and that together with the aforementioned we will produce the remaining fishermen who work in the same marsh-thicket. If we do not work thus together with the remaining fishermen, we will pay from our own means the rent of the same marsh-thickets for the present 17th year, or may we be liable to the oath.

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.
