p.enteux.51 Magdola (Arsinoites)

Requête au sujet d’un contrat via HGV-meta

Petition to the king about a contract held by the deceased's son-in-law. A petition addressed to King Ptolemy by Alexandros, a Lysimacheus, concerning a contract he made with the late Theugenes son of Korragos. Because the contract's keeper, Satyros, is Theugenes' son-in-law, Alexandros asks that the strategos Diophanes have the epistates Philotas summon Satyros so the document is not tampered with; the verso carries the official instruction to Philotas. 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.
