To King Ptolemy, greetings from Dizaporis, Thracian, […] of the […] hipparchy, holder of 70 arouras. I am wronged by Deinias the epistates. For when […]rokinos' wife had mortgaged the […] which she held in Kerkesoucha, and the term of the mortgage had passed, instead of renewing it she made a supplementary payment (?) according to the ordinance; and while I was living in this billet, Deinias came and threw out my horse without a hearing and settled […] there, so that my horse is in the open air. I beg you therefore, O king, if it seems good to you, to order Diophanes the strategos to write to Deinias the epistates to evict the Egyptian and give the house back to me; and if he raises any objection, that he be brought to judgement with me, so that it may not happen, with the horse standing in the open, that some mishap befall it and […]. For when this is done, having taken refuge with you, O king, I shall obtain justice.
To Deinias. Report to us about these matters how they stand (?). Farewell.
Year 25, Loios 26, Choiak 13.

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.
