[r] πληροφορήσῃ ὁ Θεὸς τὴν ὑμετέραν ἀδελφικὴν διάθεσιν. μαρτύρομαι εἰς τὸ μεταξὺ πρᾶγμα Πάωτι καὶ τοῖς κληρικοῖς τῆς ἁγίας Μαρίας, ὅτι οὐ κατʼ ἀνάγκην ἐποίησαν αὐτῷ τὴν ἀντιμίσθωσιν, καὶ οὐ μόνον ὅτι ἐποίησαν τὴν ἀντιμίσθωσιν· μετʼ ἐγγυητοῦ ἐγένετο τὸ σύμφωνον, καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἐγγυητής. εἰ οὖν οἰκονομεῖν οὐκ ἐξουσίαν ἔχουσιν τὰ γῄδια αὐτῶν, μανθάνετε πλέον· μοὶ παρακληθήτω οὖν ἡ σὴ ἀδελφότης κελεῦσαι φυλάξαι αὐτῷ τὸ δίκαιον […]τὰς εἰρημένας ταύτας ἀρούρας· οἱ γὰρ κληρικοὶ οὐκ ἐποίησαν παράλογον, δέσποτα [v] † τῷ ἐμῷ δεσπότῃ τῷ τὰ πάντα λαμπροτάτῳ καὶ εὐδοκιμωτάτῳ κυρίῳ Διοσκόρῳ Ἀναστάσιος νοτάριος

EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
[recto] […] may God fully reward (?) your brotherly disposition. I bear witness concerning the matter between Paos and the clergy of Saint Mary, that they did not make the counter-lease with him under compulsion, and not only that they made the counter-lease: the agreement was made with a guarantor, and I am the guarantor. If then they do not have authority to manage their own plots of land, you will learn more. So let your brotherliness be entreated by me to order that his right be preserved […] these aforementioned arouras. For the clergy did nothing unreasonable, master. [verso] † To my master, the most illustrious in all things and most esteemed lord Dioskoros, Anastasios, notary.

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.
