EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
To the keepers of the property records of the Hermopolite nome, from the Aurelii Herminos alias Moros and Theognostos alias Moros, both sons of Hermaios alias Pathotes son of Achilleus, their mother being Soueros, Hermopolites registered in the quarter of the City East. We register for the present 6th year of Marcus Aurelius Severus Alexander Caesar the lord, from the inheritance of our paternal uncle Herminos son of Achilleus, registered in the City East, who died childless and intestate, leaving us and another brother, Isidoros, of the same parents, as sole heirs, our two-thirds share of an entire house and courtyard and fixtures and all appurtenances in Hermopolis in the quarter of the Fort West. Therefore we submit this and swear by the fortune of Marcus Aurelius Severus Alexander Caesar the lord that this is so. Year 6 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Severus Alexander Pius Felix Augustus, Hathyr 3. Aurelius Artemidoros, councillor, record keeper, through Aurelius Sarapammon, secretary: since nothing at all is recorded as registered under the name of your paternal uncle, and it is unclear whether his inheritance belongs to you, I have received a copy.

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.
