Year […] of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Commodus Augustus Pius Armeniacus Medicus Parthicus Sarmaticus Germanicus Maximus Britannicus, […] at the city of the Oxyrhynchi in the Thebaid, with good fortune. These are the dispositions I, Nilion son of Sarapion son of Sarapion, my mother being […], of the city of the Oxyrhynchi, have made, being sane and in my right mind, in the street. For as long as I survive I shall have power over my own property to do whatever I wish, and to alter this will and to annul it, and whatever I do shall be valid. But if I die under this will having made no alteration, I set free under Zeus, Earth and Sun […] on account of goodwill and affection […] the slave woman and the offspring to be born of her, […] of the manumission […] […] and the same my son Sarapion […] […] of Papion, called […] […] the children to be born to him […] […] thirty-second part of arouras, survey of(?) Tychinakitoou(?) […] […] of a house and courtyard and yard and fixtures […] […] half share of the aforementioned land […] […] household equipment and debts […] […] brother(?)

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.
