[recto] Theophilos to Theomnestos, greeting. Of the statement of account from Agathokles the epimeletes and from Theon the oikonomos, which [so-and-so] the royal scribe co-signs, the copy is appended for you. Following therefore the instructions, measure out, together with the checking officials, from what you receive of wheat through the agents of Theon the oikonomos, to Archedemos, for the mercenary cavalrymen for Phamenoth of year 12, 250 artabas of wheat, and the barley still owed to him for the same men up to Phamenoth, fifteen artabas, total: wheat 250, barley 15, by the disbursing measure, and make a receipt with him, and take care that nothing in these matters is overlooked, nor of what is due to the royal treasury, since the accountability will rest with you. […] Year 12 […] Agathokles to Theophilos, greeting. Of the statement of account from Archedemos the copy is appended. Measure out to him for the mercenary cavalrymen stationed in the Herakleopolite nome, whom we have also counted, what he declares to be the ration due for Phamenoth of year 12, 287 artabas of wheat, 367 1/2 of barley, total: wheat 287, barley 367 1/2.

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.
