Syros to his dearest Heroneinos and Serenos, greetings.
If one of the bulls of Dionysias, being led away under the axle (?) to Ibion Argaiou, comes to either of you and the hour ⟦compels⟧ overtakes it so that it must put up with you, provide it with fodder and give the bull-driver the customary expenses. Having read my letter, be content with the reading of it.
I pray for your health, dearest ones.
Year 4, Phamenoth 1.

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.
