EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
Copy for issue (?), Year 6 of Claudius, month of Germanikios. I, Haryotes son of Herodion, Persian of the epigone, acknowledge that I have received from my wife, with whom I was formerly and am now living, Taorsenouphis daughter of Aphrodisios, forthwith from hand to hand out of the house, as an additional dowry upon herself, 100 drachmas of coined silver; and I will treat her as a wedded wife, and if a separation from one another occurs I will return the aforesaid 100 drachmas of silver. And there remains valid for you, Taorsenouphis, the contract of maintenance which you hold from me, with my parents as co-guarantors, concerning another dowry in money and parapherna, and all the stipulations set out in it remain valid; and I will do everything as stated above. I, Taorsenouphis daughter of Aphrodisios, with my guardian, her relative Eutychos son of Orsenouphis: the agreement has been made with me as stated above. I, Eutychos, wrote on her behalf because she does not know letters, and I have signed as her guardian.

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.
