Mutual agreement made with each other by the Aurelii, Modestus also called Olympos, son of Patas, his mother being Herakleous, from the city of Oxyrhynchus, collector together with others of the grain receipts of the metropolis for the places of the upper toparchy of Sko, and, on the other side, one of the partners, Melas son of Melas, and Nepotianus son of Theon, both from the same city: Modestus also called Olympos (agrees) that he has made an arrangement with Melas and his associates concerning his own position in the said collectorship, on condition that they shall carry out the record-keeping and the collection of the grain receipts to be published by the royal scribe of the nome for the same collectorship, for the review of the past 4th year, and shall submit to the judgments that take place and shall hand in the deductions, because they have received the 350 silver drachmas agreed upon for salary and the price of papyrus rolls and other expenses, from hand to hand, the share of the insolvent and hard-to-collect (debts) being the responsibility of the common body of the principals; and Melas and his associates (agree) that they consent to these terms and will do each thing as stated above, so that Modestus also called Olympos is not troubled concerning his position in the said collectorship […]

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.
