[A] [Ioannes Theodoros Menas Narses Chnoubammon] Horion Hephaistos, the most glorious quaestor, dux and augustalis of the Thebaid province. [Since the time has, with God's help, arrived in which care must be taken for the] obligatory grain shipment of the fortunate seventh [indiction, avoiding all blame for negligence, hasten] to dispatch it to the great city of the Alexandrians with [all fear, loading] the required measure [onto small boats] straight away and immediately according to the [subjoined schedule, at the risk of the officium; for] it is for this reason that [someone] from the officium [has been sent. Farewell.] [B] You must, following the example of the just past sixth indiction, deliver the subjoined measure to the most fortunate grain shipment of the present seventh indiction. Of course, when the payment is made, take the receipts (?). Wheat by the kankellon measure: 5759 artabas thus: […] wheat […]: 2000 artabas wheat [by the kankellon]: 3759 (artabas)

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.
