p.lond.7.2136 Mitte III v.Chr.
Fragments of a letter concerning accounts and copies. Two fragments of a Greek papyrus, probably a letter or report from the mid-3rd century BC, mentioning accounts held by a man called Varus (?), copies of documents, a small quantity of wine, and an attempt to prevent something. The context is too damaged to reconstruct in detail. machine translation

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.
- date — from HGV-meta, TM-Text 1696 (see that record)
