Protest Against Nomination to a Liturgy via HGV-meta
Petition of camel-keepers against nomination to liturgies. Fragmentary petition by a group of camel-keepers, including Sarapion son of Kastor and men from Dionysias, protesting their nomination to liturgies such as compulsory sowing in the Herakleides division. They cite earlier rulings of prefects and an epistrategos granting them exemption. Arsinoite nome, AD 216-217. machine translation

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.
