Aurelius Chairemon son of Horigenes, his mother being Thaesis, from Aph...onou (?), to Aurelius Phamais son of Nemesion, his mother being Tapontos, from the village of Tebtynis. I have leased from you near the village of Tebetny, from the ... cleruchic holding of Demosthenes, 2 1/2 arouras for sowing with vegetable seed for the sowing of the present 2nd year, on a half share of the crops that will be produced, at the threshing floors: to me, the lessee, one half of the whole, in return for which I contribute the seed for the land and all expenses from sowing to harvesting and winnowing; and to you, Phamais, the remaining half, in return for the public dues on the land and the rents. After the winnowing we are to receive the proceeds in equal shares. You will provide me at the sowing with three yoke of oxen free of charge, the public dues on the land being your responsibility, Phamais. And having been asked the formal question, I agreed. The lease is valid. Year 2 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Julius Philippus Pius Felix and Marcus Julius Philippus the most noble Caesar, Augusti, Hathyr 8. (2nd hand) I, Aurelius Chairemon, have leased as stated above. I, Aurelius Amoi...[...], wrote on his behalf, since he says he does not know letters.

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.
