EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
[recto] From Alypios. All the cattle you have, apart from those working the water-lifting machines, whether heifers or larger beasts, hand over to Kopres the slave boy, so that they may go to the estate of Taurinos for a few days to tread the harvested crops on the shore land, which are being devoured by mice, causing us no small loss in this matter. But see that you do not neglect this, or it will not go well for you; for when your own harvested crops need to be gathered in, you will have more help, with cattle being brought to you from other places as well. I pray for your health. Signed. But see that you do not neglect this. To Heroninos, manager, at Tharso (?). Year 13, Epeiph 17. [verso] From Alypios to Heroninos, manager, at Thraso (?).

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.
