† Dioskoros, the son-in-law of Petros, the son of the brother of Tasnos, who lives here near me, has said that he gave to your brotherly Brilliance 15 solidi for the purchase of […] and of these, as he says, he received 9 solidi, but the rest he has not had until now, although their payment was due to take place in the month of Pachon. May your brotherly Brilliance therefore deign to order that these 6 solidi be given to the aforementioned Dioskoros, so that the heirs of the deceased may spend from them both on the holy offerings and on their own needs, and may take care of Dioskoros himself in whatever arises. †

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.
