[…]λέγων εἰς πρόσωπόν μου διὰ τῆς ἑαυτοῦ
ῥινὸς βουλόμενος μὲ τοῦ ζῆν ἀπαλλάξαι, καὶ εἰ μὴ βοηθείας τετυχήκειν ὑπὸ Παμοῦν ὁμοκωμήτου μου
πάλαι ἂν εἰς ψυχήν μου ἔφθακεν. διὰ τοῦτο μὴ φέρουσα τοὺς λιβέλλους ἐπιδίδωμι τῇ σῇ ἐμμελείᾳ
αὐτὰ ταῦτα μαρτυρομένη καὶ ἀξιοῦσα ἀχθῆναι αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ σοὶ καὶ τὰ ἀκόλουθα τοῖς νόμοις κατʼ αὐτῶν πρᾶξαι, φυλαχθῆναι δὲ μοὶ τὴν τοῦ διαφέροντός μου ψιλοῦ τόπου νομὴν καὶ δεσποτείαν. διευτύχει.

[…] [saying to] my face through his own nose (?), wishing to deprive me of life, and if I had not obtained help from Pamoun my fellow villager,
long ago it would have reached my very life. For this reason, unable to endure the insults (?), I submit this to your diligence,
testifying to these very things and asking that they be brought before you and that the consequences in accordance with the laws be carried out against them, and that the possession and ownership of the empty lot belonging to me be preserved for me. Farewell.
In the year after the consulship of our masters Gratian
for the 5th time and Theodosius for the 1st time, the eternal Augusti, Pachon 10.
I, Aurelia Eirene, have submitted this. I, Aurelius Herakleides,
son of Apollonios, wrote on her behalf, since she is illiterate.

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 22198 (see that record)
