Horion to his dearest Heroninos, greeting. I have sent you through Akes the donkey-driver the two sacks released to you. Please send me a letter about them. On another occasion too you were written to about your animals, so that they might carry wine for me from Talei, and you did not send them; for my own animals are carrying chaff for the […]. So even now send them to Talei in my name, or if you have it with you, send the equivalent, 102 single-measure jars. It is not today that I have come to know your inhumanity; I have always known it. I think that if the animals were yours you would not be obstructing the work like this. So I have sent you Akes with 2 animals. Load him from the balance of mine that you hold, and let me know. I pray for your health.

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.
