Θεόδωρος τοῖς ἐν Ταλάηι φυλακίταις χαίρειν. γέγραφεν ἡμῖν Πετοσῖρις ὁ τοπάρχης καὶ Πετειμούθης ὁ τοπογραμματεὺς πεπρακέναι Φιλάμμονι
ἐκ τοῦ Φιλοξένου κλήρου περὶ Ταλάην
χορταράκης ἀρούρας γ 𐅷. παραλαβόντες
οὖν τὸν κωμογραμματέα περιμετρήσατε
αὐτῶι, πλέον δὲ μὴ προίεσθε ὡς
πρὸς ὑμᾶς τοῦ λόγου ἐσομένου.

Theodoros to the guards at Talae, greetings. Petosiris the toparch and Peteimouthes the topogrammateus have written to us that they have sold to Philammon, from the kleros of Philoxenos near Talae, 3 1/2 arouras of grass-chickling. So, taking the komogrammateus with you, measure it out for him, but do not let him have more, since you will be held accountable.
Farewell. Year 15, Tybi 2.

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.
