[…] by (?) […] the shipmaster.
Greetings, my lord brother Phanias.
I put on board […] jars of old wine marked 'Phanias', 4 (?).
I am sure that you long ago reminded Antonius Petron about the 50 drachmas. If not, write to him at once so that the letter reaches him before his departure.
And remind Asklepiades too, when he sails upstream, about his 50. I also put on board the boat which you sent up 3 more plants. How much do you want […]
[…]
[address] To Phanias, secretary of the harbour of Memphis.
[docket] Jars: 4

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.
