We acknowledge, swearing by God Almighty and by the victory and permanence of our master Flavius Justinian the eternal Augustus and Emperor, that we stand surety for and have taken responsibility for Apa Pok son of Abraamios, his mother being Apostolia, from the same village, on condition that he remains in the same village and that he is not found to have done anything improper in any transaction whatsoever, open or secret, or forged, or in any (?) or fault; and whenever he is sought by your diligence, we will bring him forward and hand him over to you in a public place, outside holy precincts and divine images and the holy church, in the condition in which we received him. If he does not do this, we the sureties are ready to pay you 12 gold solidi each according to the signature, at our own risk and from the resources of our property. To this and to everything we have agreed. † Aurelius Ioseph son of Phios […] I stand surety […] † Aurelius Ioannes son of Psoios, I stand surety for […] [… 3 lines lost …] [verso] † Surety given on behalf of Papos

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.
