In the consulship of Mamertinus and Nevitta, the most illustrious.
To Aurelius Nilos son of Gennadios and Aurelius Theodoros son of Komasios, riparii of the Hermopolite nome,
from Aurelius Serenos son of Pinoution, from the village of Enseu in the same Hermopolite nome.
Six years ago I married a wife named Tamounis, whose father is Demetrios, and I gave the customary bridal gifts to the same wife and fulfilled the laws of marriage according to the custom of marriages, and I lived with her for three years. But the mother of the aforementioned woman deceived (?) me, claiming that my wife had been seized by a demon. So when I went away to my own work, in order to find a way to provide for our livelihood, she gave the same wife to another man without a divorce, named Peeus, from the village of Achilleus in the same Hermopolite nome […]

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.
