Lettera (?) via HGV-meta
Letter reporting on Papnouthis and an absconding old farmer. Fragmentary letter, probably to a cleric or official addressed as 'your Brotherhood', reporting on tax-collection matters. It mentions that a certain Papnouthis departed without loss, and that an old man who had carried the addressee's letter, unable to sow his land, absconded while village officials pursued public tax collection. machine translation

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.
- date — from HGV-meta, TM-Text 35782 (see that record)
