I acknowledge that I have and have had measured out to me by you 170 artabas of wheat, total 170 artabas of wheat, as capital, which I shall measure on your behalf into the public granary, and I shall deliver to you the deposit receipt for it, free of all expense, in the month of Pauni of the present seventh year of Trajan Caesar the lord, without any delay. If I do not measure it, I shall pay it back with half as much again, you having the right of execution upon me and upon all my property as if by a court judgment, without your being prejudiced in the execution regarding what I owed to your brother Pausanias, now deceased. This note in my own hand, of Diogenes also called Sarapion, is valid wherever it is produced and for anyone who produces it. Year 7 of Imperator Caesar Nerva Traianus Augustus Germanicus Dacicus, Hathyr 29. [verso] Note of hand of Diogenes also called Sarapion, exegetes. 170 artabas of wheat.

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.
