Souchammon to his dearest Heroninos, greetings. As the most esteemed councillor (euschemon) wished, being at Talei for the vintage he sent for me, and I received instructions to send you 120 monochora of wine. Of these I have sent you on account, by means of 4 of the estate's own animals, 32 monochora, and by means of 8 hired donkeys another 64 monochora of wine, total 96 monochora. So send me a letter of receipt, as the most esteemed councillor wished; and you will pay the hire charges of the 8 hired donkeys. Today I am going to Talei to the councillor. I pray for your health, dearest. Year 3, Thoth 9.

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.
