Οὐαβέριος Μοῦνδος Ἀπολλωνίωι στρατηγῶι χαίρειν. Οὔλπιον Μάλχον βενεφικιάριον Ῥαμμίου τοῦ κρατίστου ἡγεμόνος ἡμῶν ἐπιμελόμενον τῆς ὑπὸ σὲ περιμέτρου ἄνδρα ἀγαθώτατον συνίστημί σοι. ἐλπίζω δὲ καὶ αὐτὸν δώσειν ἐργασίαν τοιοῦτον ἑαυτὸν παραστῆσαί σοι, οἷον ἐγὼ διεβεβαιωσάμην. καὶ αὐτῷ δὲ ἔγραψα, ἵνα, ἐὰν αὐτῷ ἐπιζεύξῃς, προθυμότερον ἑαυτὸν παράσχῃ σοι. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι, ἄδελφε τιμιώτατε. ἔρρωσο.

Vaberius Mundus to Apollonios, strategos, greetings. I recommend to you Ulpius Malchus, beneficiarius of Rammius, our most excellent prefect, who is in charge of the district under you, a most excellent man. I hope that he too will make the effort to show himself to you such as I have affirmed him to be. And I have also written to him so that, if you join with him, he may make himself more readily available to you. I pray for your health, most honoured brother. Farewell.

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.
