Σαραπάμμων Νεφωτιανῷ
τῷ πατρὶ πλεῖστα χαίρειν.
ἔπεμψα πρός σε Δράκωντα καὶ Μέλανον μισθωτὰς τοῦ κυρίου μου Ἀμβροσίου, εἰσὶν γὰρ σκυτεῖς,
ἵνα σκυτῇς μετʼ αὐτῶν
ἕως ἐωνήσαντο κερατέας τῶν ἀκανθέων.
καλῶς οὖν ποιήσεις παραπροσσχεῖν αὐτοῖς, ἵνα
μήτις αὐτοῖς ἐπήρειαν
ποιήσῃ, τόπον δὲ αὐτοῖς παράσχες αὐτοῖς ποῦ μείνωσιν.
ἐρρῶσθαί σʼ εὔχομαι,
πάτηρ, πολλοῖς
ἔτεσιν.

Αὐρηλίῳ Νεπωτιανῷ παρὰ ΣαραπάμμωνοςTranslations (1)
Sarapammon to Nepotianus his father, very many greetings.
I have sent to you Drakon and Melanos, hired men of my lord Ambrosios, for they are leatherworkers, so that you may work leather with them until they have bought carob pods (?) of the acacias (?). Please, then, look after them, so that no one does them any harm, and provide them with a place where they may stay.
I pray for your health, father, for many years.
[verso]
To Aurelius Nepotianus from Sarapammon

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.
- date — from HGV-meta, TM-Text 32145 (see that record)
