Contestation d’un héritage via HGV-meta
Petition of Diodoros against Damasippa concerning an inheritance. A petition addressed to King Ptolemy by Diodoros, complaining that Damasippa of Oxyrhyncha in the Polemon division of the Arsinoite nome contested his inheritance from his kinsman Diogenes son of Rhodokles. The estate included sanctuaries of Demeter (Thesmophoria) at Dikaiou Kome and Oxyrhyncha, and Damasippa apparently arranged a division of the property while Diodoros was in Alexandria. machine translation

To King Ptolemy, greetings from Diodoros. I am wronged by Damasippa, of Oxyrhyncha in the division of Polemon. For when I had obtained from Dositheos an ordinance concerning the property of Diogenes son of Rhodokles, my kinsman, because the inheritance belongs to me according to the laws, and there belonged to him in the village of Dikaiou a Thesmophorion of Demeter [and its] appurtenances, and likewise also another in Oxyrhyncha, Damasippa, claiming to be a kinswoman […] division of the property belonging to this inheritance, while I was in Alexandria […] in the village of Dikaiou has given (?) […] to hold and enjoy the produce […]

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.
