To Claudius Alexander, centurion,
from Panetbeus, public farmer from the village of Theadelphia. The woman living with me […], by whom I also had a child, having become estranged from her life together with me and taking the opportunity of my absence, left my house […] months ago without the so-called (deed of) separation, carrying off […] both her own things and most of ours, among which were a large white unfulled cloak, an Oxyrhynchite pillow, a double-woven(?) crosswise-striped (garment), materials for two tunics, and […] and other farming tools. And although I sent to her many times wishing to recover our things, she paid no heed and returned nothing, even though I had supplied her with the maintenance for the child. Since, then, I have now learned that a certain Neilos son of Syros from the same village has unlawfully carried her off and married her, I submit (this petition) and ask that both she and Neilos be brought before you, so that I may obtain justice and recover our things, and I shall have been helped.
Farewell.

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.
