[recto] † Before every word, I make obeisance to and greet your brotherly excellency. First, I reproach it greatly because your same brotherliness passed by Euphrosynon and did not look for me […] so that I have not yet made obeisance to it. Yet I am indeed […] displeased at that time, but I heard what happened concerning your brotherliness in Antinoe, that you defeated your enemies. I ask it to receive from the letter-carrier 2 keratia in small change, so that it may settle the need, and […] since there is need. For with God I wish to sail down […] our […]. May I not fail in this; trusting in you I wrote […] calling. When you go down to Antinoe to our most illustrious masters the pagarchs, look for me at Hermopolis. Since I was not deemed worthy of you at Euphrosynon, then at least in my city, so that my house may be deemed worthy of your brotherliness. Again I greet it especially with all my soul, until with God I see you face to face, good master, friend. † [verso] † Delivered to the most esteemed Dioskoros, protokometes […] † Phoibammon […]

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.
