Contract for Work via APIS-papyrus
Labour contract of a freedman for work in a workshop. Fragment of a mutual agreement from early 4th-century AD Egypt in which a freedman engages to work in the workshop of a man named […]rates son of Kyrillos for a fixed period, apparently at a daily wage of 500 drachmas. An advance of 36,000 (drachmas?) seems to be paid by hand. 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.
