May your magnificence deem it worthy to send Jacob the farmer of Graidos and make him arrive together with those sent by me, the rivermen, to his machine and show them the place of the newly planted ground so that they may work there. The place of the vineyard must be filled to the four aruras, excluding the ground. I have also written to Theodore the procurator to provide them with a token of a pledge, that is, two artabas of wheat and four hundred fifty myriads of silver. Deliver to my lord, the wondrous, from the illustrious Theodore.

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.
