Aurelius Pausanias son of Valerius, former magistrate of the city of the Mothites, to Aurelius Psais son of Pamour, from the village of Kellis of the same city of the Mothites, greetings.
I acknowledge that I have granted to you, by a perpetual and irrevocable gift, from now for all time, out of the land belonging to me on the east of the village of Kellis, a plot for building, measuring 15 carpenter's cubits south and north, 25 cubits east and west.
Neighbours: on the east, land of me, Pausanias; on the west, the camel-yard of Horos son of Mersis; on the south, your house and (that of your) son and […] your […]; on the north, a public street; or whoever the neighbours may be on all sides.
So that you may possess and own it and have the right to administer and manage the plot granted to you of my free will in whatever way you choose, the guarantee following upon me always against anyone who will proceed against or lay claim to it. Let the deed of gift, written in a single copy over my signature, be valid and secure as if deposited in a public archive, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent.
In the consulship of Flavius Delmatius, brother of our master Constantine Augustus, and Domitius Zenophilus, the most illustrious, Hathyr 1.
I, Aurelius Pausanias son of Valerius, former magistrate, the aforesaid, have granted the aforesaid vacant plot as stated above, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent.

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.
