[recto] From Alypios. You ought not even to need a reminder, since you know the fixed days of the distribution (?). Let it be done, then, according to custom, on the whole dike of M…tilas; for I have sent Timaios there too, and you have sent word of this to me (?) for Gelasios' people and Phirmos. I pray for your health. Year 5, Hathyr 2. To Gelasios and Herakleides, 4 (?) [verso] To Herakleides and Gelasios

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.
