Decision on disputed vacant plots claimed for the Idios Logos. Fragment of an official decision concerning a dispute over vacant building plots at Soknopaiou Nesos, sold by a priest (prophet). The prophet claimed they were ancestral property, while the accuser Nestnephis argued they had belonged to an old laarches and so fell to the Idios Logos; the outcome orders Satabous to pay 500 drachmas for confirmation of the plots. machine translation

[…]ψιλῶν τόπων

πατρικὰ ἔγγαια ὧν καὶ νῦν ἐπικρατεῖν πύργου καὶ προνησίου καὶ ἄλλων
συνκυρόντων, τοῦ δὲ ἐνκαλοῦντος Νεστνήφιος ἀνθοριζομένου
τὴν ὅλην περίστασιν τῶν τοπῶν ἐν ᾗ εἶναι τὸν πύργον καὶ τὸ προνήσιον καὶ τοὺς πεπραμένους ὑπὸ τοῦ προφήτου τόπους λαάρχου
τινὸς ἀρχαίου γεγονέναι καὶ ὑποπίπτειν τῷ ἰδίῳ λόγῳ ἐν ἐπικρίσει τετάχαμεν διὰ τὸ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους μὴ τὸ αὐτὸ συνορίζεσθαι, περὶ δὲ μόνων τῶν πεπραμένων ψιλῶν τόπων

Σαταβοῦς[…]ἀπαιτεισθω ὑπὲρ ἐπιβεβαιώσεως ψιλῶν τόπων δραχμὰς φTranslations (1)
[…] of vacant plots
[…] the prophet declaring that the plots sold by him had been held by his father and his ancestors, which were his ancestral landed property, of which he still holds a tower and a forecourt and other appurtenances; while the accuser Nestnephis declared in reply that the whole area of the plots, in which the tower and the forecourt and the plots sold by the prophet lie, had belonged to a certain laarches of old and fall under the Idios Logos. We have placed (the matter) under examination because the elders do not agree on the same point, but have certified in writing concerning the sold vacant plots alone that they appeared to them to be ownerless […] of administration […] not to have produced […]
Satabous […] let him be required to pay for confirmation of the vacant plots 500 drachmas.

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.
