[r]
Εὐσέβιος Ἀφροδιταρίῳ χαίρειν.
ὅτι ὑγιαίνοιμεν ἀναγκαῖον ἦν
γνῶναι ὑμᾶς, εὔχομαι δὲ καὶ παρʼ
ὑμῶν γράμματα λαβεῖν τὰ
αὐτὰ δηλοῦντα· ἀλλὰ μὴν καὶ
ὁ κύριός μου Γέσσιος συνήθως
πως ἀνεδύετο. θεοῦ οὖν παρέχοντος ὀλίγον διατρίψας
εὐεκτῶν ἀνέρχομαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς
τὰ ἐρίδια ποιήσων ἀσφαλῶς κατεργασθῆναι, ἵνα ἐκεῖθεν ἱμάτια
αὐτῷ καὶ ἡμῖν κατασκευασθῇ.
παρῆλθον δὲ τὰ μηδενὸς
ἄξια· τοῦ πυρός ἐστιν. καὶ ἐπέστειλεν ἵνα μὴ ἀμελήσῃ
ἐκείνων. μάλα γὰρ ματίσας
εὐτύχησατῷ κυρίῳ σου
βίρριον ἐρεοῦν ἀγοράσαι ἕν . ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ πολλὰ ἄσπαζε καὶ τὴν
θυγατέρα Χάρμειν καὶ τὴν
φιλτάτην Ἑρμιόνην, περὶ ἧς
σοι καὶ κατʼ ὄψιν ἐνετειλάμην καὶ νῦν σε πάλιν ὑπομιμνῄσκω, ἀλλὰ καὶ Ἀδωραν καὶ
τὸν Νικάμωνα καὶ Νίκην·
ὁ Νικάμων δὲ ἐπηρέασε
ἡμᾶς. οἱ ἡμέτεροι ἐρρωμένοι
ἀσπάζονται ὑμᾶς. ἐρρῶσθαί
σε εὔχομαι ὁλοκληροῦσαν
καὶ εὐτυχοῦσαν πανοικεί.

[recto]
Eusebios to Aphroditarion, greetings.
It was necessary for you to know that we are in good health, and I pray also to receive letters from you showing the same. Moreover, my lord Gessios too was recovering somewhat as usual. So, God granting, after staying a little while, being in good health I am coming up to you to have the wool safely worked, so that from it garments may be made for him and for us. The things of no value have passed (?); it belongs to the fire (?). And he gave instructions that he should not neglect those things. For having (?) [...] greatly, he succeeded (?) in buying for your lord one woollen birrus. Greet warmly from me also your daughter Charmis and dearest Hermione, about whom I gave you instructions in person and now remind you again, and also Adora and Nikamon and Nike. Nikamon, however, treated us abusively. Our people, who are well, greet you. I pray that you are well, in full health and prospering with your whole household.

Eusebios [...] of Hermophilos (?), deliver to Aphroditarion [...]

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 31822 (see that record)
