[recto] To Flavius Isidoros and Flavius Theodoros, from the […] office of the governorship of the Thebaid, Aurelius Silvanus, exactor of the Hypselite nome, greetings. I acknowledge, swearing the divine and venerable oath of our masters the triumphant, eternal Augusti, that I stand surety willingly and of my own free choice for the Aurelii Heraklianos son of Heraios, through Heraios his father, and Theodoros son of Ammonios, through Ammonios his father, former collectors (kephalaiotai) of the 12th indiction, and Aibutius son of Chairemon, through Chairemon his father, former collector of the 13th indiction, on condition that they present themselves at the governor's office and make their appearance and not depart until the order has been carried out; otherwise may I be liable to the divine oath. And having been asked the formal question, I acknowledged it. In the consulship of Domitius Modestus, most illustrious prefect of the sacred praetorium, and Arintheus, most illustrious general, Mesore 24. I, Aurelius Silvanus, the aforesaid, stand surety for the aforesaid men and will produce them as aforesaid. [verso] Surety (?) of the exactor Silvanus of the Hypselite nome for Heraklianos and Theodoros of the 12th indiction and Aibutius of the 13th indiction.

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.
