To Sokrates son of Sarapion, cleruch of the 90-aroura cleruchy, from Petheus son of Kollouthos, from the village of Karanis. I wish to lease for three years, from the present 14th year of Antoninus Caesar the lord, for two sowings and harvests, the 1 aroura of palm grove which you cultivate from the same cleruchy near Patsontis, of royal land, in the place called Tatnouei, in return for all the public dues on it; and I will carry out all the agricultural work, and I will measure out the rents to the public granary. You will guarantee to me all the payments made to the public bank. If it seems good to you, grant the lease on the above terms. I, Petheus the aforementioned, have leased from you as stated above. I, Herakles […], wrote on his behalf since he does not know letters. Year 14 of Antoninus Caesar the lord, Choiak 3.

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.
