Hermaios to the most honoured Apollonios, greetings.
They say that Petemenekysis, the boundary-marker, has gone up to you, and we are sitting idle waiting for him, in the remeasurement of a basin of 11 arouras and adjoining it the uncultivated land (hypologos) of the metropolis. An inspection is required of the hypologos of the 15th year and 17th year of the metropolis, and its scribe and the boundary-marker. So if you think fit, lord, send them to us at once, since we are sitting in the field. The gods willing, we will greet you tomorrow. I pray for your health, my lord.
[verso]
To Apollonios, strategos

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.
