[recto] Syros to Heroninos and Dionysios, greetings. If the calf which I ordered to be given to Palas proved satisfactory to him and is with him, you, Dionysios, go at once to Philoteris and bring back the one in its place; for my lord Alypios ordered this, for he very much needs it here. I pray that you are well, dearest friends. Year 5, Hathyr 18. [verso] To Heroninos, manager of Theadelphia.

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.
