Palas to his dearest Heroninos, greetings.
The 5 hired pack animals I found ready I have sent on to you by the wood-guards, so that you may load them with wine from the stock released to me by Ischyrion, half in single jars (monochora) and half in double jars (dichora). But supply it yourself after testing it by smell, knowing that if bad wine is found among them for me, or anything else bad, it will be sent back to you. From the 3rd (?) vat you will send the double jars, and if you have them, also single jars. For I had no leisure to come to you because of what was written about the fishermen with me.
I pray for your health, dearest.
Year 5, Phamenoth 9.

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.
