παρὰ Ἀλυπίου […] ἀπέστειλα τὸν οἰκονόμον Ἡρακλείδην πρὸς σὲ καθὰ ἠξίωσας ἵνα τὴν διαταγὴν τῆς τρύγης ποιήσηται. ὑπερθοῦ δὲ ἡμερῶν δύο καὶ τριῶν ἵνα καὶ τὰ κοῦφά σοι συνδράμῃ ἀλλὰ καὶ ὁ οἶνος καλὸς γένηται, οἶδας γὰρ ὅτι ὁ καιρὸς νῦν ἐστιν ὀψιμώτερος, καθὼς καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἄλλοις κτηματίοις ἐποίησα. καθʼ αὐτὴν οὖν τὴν ὄψιν μὴ πισθεὶς οὖν τοῖς καρπώναις τὴν τρύγην ποίησαι καὶ οὕτως μοι ἐπίστειλον. ἔπεμψα δέ σοι καὶ ἀπολυσίδιον οἴνου εἰς τὴν τρύγην πρὸς σὲ μόνον […] ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι. Ἥρωνείνῳ φροντιστῇ Θρασώ. ἔτους ζ, Μεσορὴ ιη.

EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
From Alypios […] I have sent the steward Herakleides to you, as you asked, so that he may make the arrangements for the vintage. But put it off for two or three days, so that the light wine (?) may also come together for you and the wine may turn out good; for you know that the season is now rather late, just as I did on the other small estates too. So, according to how it looks, do not trust the fruit-buyers, but carry out the vintage, and then write to me. I have also sent you a release-order for wine for the vintage, to you alone […] I pray for your health. To Heroninos, manager, at Thraso (?). Year 7, Mesore 18.

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.
