I acknowledge that I have received and been paid in full by you the complete price, agreed between us, of 1 1/3 artabas of wheat and 10 knidia of new wine-must, total 1 1/3 artabas of wheat and 10 knidia of wine, which I will deliver to you as follows: the wheat in the month of Pauni, at the time of the harvest of crops of the third indiction, coming in with God's help, in new, clean, sieved wheat, by your Athenian measure; and the wine in the month of Mesore, at the time of the vintage of crops of the same indiction, without delay, in new, finest and acceptable wine, by the measure of the vineyard estate under my care, you providing the empty jars for them. If I am unable to give you the said wheat and wine within the same term, I will pay you for their price 6 carats of gold immediately after the […] of the same term, at my own risk and that of all my property. This deed is valid and binding, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent. I, Aurelius Kollouthos son of Lythios, the aforesaid, have made this deed as stated above.

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.
