[recto] † In the consulship of our master Flavius Anastasius the eternal Augustus and Flavius Rufus the most glorious, Pauni 23 of the 15th indiction, in Herakleopolis. To the house of Apion, most glorious and most magnificent, through Apollos the accountant, Flavius Jacob, singularis of the governor's office, son of Panneous, Arsinoite, greetings. I acknowledge, swearing by God Almighty and the victory and piety of the triumphant sovereign, that I voluntarily and of my own free will stand surety and guarantee for the residence and presence of Aurelius apa Sion, son of John, zetarios and gardener of the official guesthouse, that he will remain without transgression and without reproach, serving the public needs and the official orders, in no way absenting himself, for the whole period of the accountancy of the aforesaid house. If he should abscond and, when he is sought, I do not produce him and hand him over in a public place of this city, outside holy precincts and divine images and any other refuge whatsoever, whence I also received him, I, his aforewritten guarantor, shall be liable to answer on his behalf, all my property being pledged for this. The surety is valid, and having been asked the formal question I acknowledged it †. [Flavius] Jacob, singularis, son of Panneous, the aforementioned, I stand surety for Aurelius apa Sion son of John, zetarios and gardener of the official guesthouse, as stated above. I, Aurelius Papnouthis son of Phoibammon, private scribe from Herakleopolis, having been asked, wrote for him since he is illiterate ☧. † Written through me, Epiphanios, notary †. [verso] † Surety of Jacob son of Panneous, singularis, for apa Sion, zetarios and gardener.

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.
