Eingabe in Zusammenhang mit einem Flurschaden via HGV-meta

Petition concerning crop damage and a guarantor for 30 artabas of wheat. A petition from the Herakleopolite nome concerning damage to crops, apparently caused by grazing. The petitioner, forced to provide the granary keeper as guarantor for 30 artabas of wheat claimed by one Ptolemaios, asks the official to have Ptolemaios sent for judgment and to stop collection until then. The official's instructions to the epistatai Patroklos and Nikanor are noted on the back. machine translation

[recto] [… lines lost …] […] … […] […] … […] … […] to Glaukon the … […] of the unit (tagma) […] … I gave … […] Onnophris (?) son of Peteesis, the keeper of the granary, as guarantor, on the understanding that I would measure out to him the 30 artabas of wheat. Since therefore, being compelled, until I could inform you about these matters, I have given a guarantor, I ask you, if it seems good to you, to write to Patroklos the epistates to send Ptolemaios to you to have the case decided with me, and to Nikanor, the epistates of the village, not to allow him to exact payment from the guarantor until the judgment, so that, when you have examined the matter, if I appear to have grazed down not more than the fourth part, you may not allow him to exact a penalty from me. For if this is done, I shall obtain justice through you. Farewell. [verso] To Patroklos: let it be dealt with as is proper. To Nikanor likewise.

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.
