Petition to Scholastici via APIS-papyrus
Petition of the soldier Flavius Abraamios to scholastici. Fragmentary petition from a soldier, Flavius Abraamios, to a group of scholastici (legal advocates acting as officials), named Phileas, Epimachos, Theophilos and Ammoninos. The surviving preamble praises the emperor's just judgment, which punishes the wicked and vindicates the good, before the damaged account of the complaint breaks off. It dates to the 6th century AD. 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 37333 (see that record)
