[recto]
After the consulship of our master Theodosius, eternal Augustus, for the 7th time, and of Flavius Palladius, most illustrious prefect of the sacred praetorium of Italy, Pauni 21.
To the heirs of Serenos, former scholastikos of the staff of the governorship of the Thebaid,
from Aurelia Eirene daughter of Serenos, her mother being Thatres, from Hermopolis the most illustrious city. I wish voluntarily and of my own free will to lease from you, for whatever period you wish, reckoned from the following month Epeiph of the auspicious beginning of the first new indiction, from the part belonging to you and falling to your share of a whole house, two rooms in the upper storey, in the same city in the quarter of East City, for the dwelling and use of Lykarios, soldier of the numerus of the Moors of the same city, at a rent per year of 11,000 talents of silver, which rent I shall pay you at the end of each year without delay. And whenever you wish to have them back, I shall hand over to you the same two rooms together with the two doors fitted to them as I received them, having damaged them in no respect. The lease is valid, and having been asked the formal question I agreed. I, Aurelia Eirene daughter of Serenos, the aforesaid, have leased as stated above. I, Aurelius Phoibammon, wrote on her behalf since she does not know letters, and it was written through me.

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.
