In the first year of Emperor Nerva Caesar Augustus on the 6th of the month Artemisios, Phamenoth 6, in Karanis of the Herakleides division of the Arsinoite nome. Kephalas, son of Petosiris, about thirty four years old, scar over his right eyebrow, acknowledges to Tapontos, daughter of Chairemon, about forty years old, scar on her right shin, with as her guardian her husband Mikkalos, son of Ptolemaios, about forty seven years old, scar on the middle of his forehead under his hair, that he has received back from her immediately, hand to hand, out of the house one hundred sixty silver drachmas, which are the remainder of two hundred silver drachmas, which Tapontos owed to him, hand to hand, without written record, already from the eighth year of Domitian from an account of a pledge for a plot of two and a twentieth arouras, since Kephalas had previously received from Tapontos forty drachmas towards full payment of the two hundred silver drachmas according to another agreement drawn up through the same writing office in the month of Sebastos of the present year, which remains valid. Neither Kephalas himself nor his agents may initiate proceedings against Tapontos or her agents, neither concerning the two hundred silver drachmas which he has received (now) and which he previously received as aforesaid, nor concerning any other matter all, neither a written nor an unwritten debt, from the past until the present day in any way. Subscriber for the acknowledging party: Heron, son of Satyros, about 27 years old, scar on the middle of his forehead. I, Kephalas, son of Petsiris, acknowledge that I have received back from Tapontos, daughter of Chairemon, hand to hand, out of the house one hundred sixty silver drachmas, which are the remainder of two hundred silver drachmas, which she owed , hand to hand, without written record, already from the eighth year of Domitian from an account of a pledge for a plot of two and a twentieth arouras, through the previous receipt of forty drachmas towards full payment of the two hundred silver drachmas according to another agreement drawn up through the same writing office in the month of Sebastos of the present year, which remains valid and I will not initiate proceedings, as is stated. Heron, son of Satyros wrote on his behalf, because he does not know letters. Registered through the grapheion in Karanis.

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.
