EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
To Dionysios, royal scribe of the Polemon division of the Arsinoite nome, also acting as deputy for the office of strategos, from Harpaesis son of Kronion, from the village of Tebtynis in the same division. I leased long ago from Asklepiades son of Asklepiades, citizen of Antinoopolis, at the village of Kerkesis in the same division, 25 1/2 arouras of grain land, among which also 10 1/2 arouras of ktamia (?), of which I paid him, Asklepiades, the rents in full up to year 9 and for year 9 itself. In the past year 10, after I had done the work and sown the arouras fully with wheat, a breach occurred from the marsh (?) near Kerkesis and the grain arouras came under water together with the other arouras, and this became known to all, Asklepiades staying in Antinoopolis; I myself paid the public dues and measured out the artaba-tax and naubion for the arouras. In the present year 11, since the water of the marsh drained off late, I carried out the proper work on the 12 1/2 sown arouras, and also on all the arouras of the ktamia (?), in year 11, […] because the water drained off late, the crops sown grew poorly. Therefore I submit this memorandum and ask that a copy be delivered by an attendant to Asklepiades himself, so that he may know that I renounce the crops sown in the arouras and the work I carried out on them, and that no claim remains about them, nor about the rents of the present year, nor about anything else whatsoever, and that Asklepiades himself take back the arouras from the present year 11 and pay the public dues on them, while there remain to me the artabas of wheat that I measured out to the wheat account in three instalments. I am content with this declaration. Harpaesis, about 52 years old, scar on left thumb. Posid(onios), nomographos, made the description. Year 11 of Antoninus Caesar the lord, Pachon 8.

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.
