To King Ptolemy, greetings, […] of those from Krokodilopolis. I am wronged by Hermogenes, [of those from the] same city […] so that he might measure out on my behalf into the royal [granary (?)] […] 20 artabas of wheat […] but now he has not measured out the 20 artabas of wheat […] me […] he did not measure out the grain on my behalf […]
I beg you therefore, O King, if it please you, to order Diophanes the strategos […] if the statements in the petition appear to be true, to compel him […] For if this is done, I shall have obtained justice through you, O King, the common saviour of all […]
Farewell.
Nikon was sent along with it.

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.
