[… lines lost …] […] [at the vintage] of the month [Meso]re of the present thirteenth indiction, of wine from the vintage of the, God willing, fourteenth indiction, without delay. And I guarantee the quality and keeping of the wine until the whole of the month Tybi, and if any should be found in it sour or bad, that I will exchange these and furnish you the equivalent in first-quality wine. The contract, written in a single copy, is valid, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent. The association of the aforementioned persons: this contract is satisfactory to us as set out above. I, Papnouthios, wrote on their behalf as they are absent. † Through me, Papnouthios, it was completed.

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.
