Petition about cows grazing on a vetch crop near Andromachis. A petition from Ptolemaios, a military settler holding 70 arouras, to Onesandros, epistates of the Themistos division of the Arsinoite nome, complaining that Harchebis grazed his cows on Ptolemaios' vetch crop near Andromachis and apparently assaulted the shepherd who found them, taking the cows back. He asks that Harchebis be summoned. The text dates to around 219-217 BC. machine translation

To Onesandros, epistates of the division of Themistos, from Ptolemaios, holder of 70 arouras. I am wronged by Harchebis. For I have a crop of chickling vetch near the village of Andromachis in the division of Themistos, and Harchebis let loose his cows and grazed them on it on the 15th day of Hathyr. When the shepherd Hieron came to the field where the vetch grows, he found three cows of Harchebis, of the aforementioned […] […] Harchebis […] them […] […] […] […] into whatever part of the body he happened to hit, and took away the cows. I therefore ask you to write to the epistates there to send him before you, so that I may obtain justice from you.
Farewell.

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.
