Paiement de fermage via HGV-meta
Petition about unpaid wheat rent for leased private land. A petition addressed to Alexandros, probably an official, from a landholder who had leased 44 arouras of his privately sown land to Amenneus and associates for the royal rents plus 88 artabas of wheat. The tenants paid only part of what was due, and he asks that the village headman Horos compel them to pay the remaining 53 artabas from the threshed grain. It dates to the late 3rd century BC, from Magdola in the Arsinoite nome. machine translation

[…] I ask you therefore to order Horos the village headman, since the grain is on the threshing floor already threshed, to compel them to pay me the remaining 53 artabas. For if this is done, having obtained your help, I shall be able to cultivate the land that I hold. Farewell.

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.
