[I bear witness to the sale, having heard it from the parties who made it,] and I also bear witness to the payment of the gold of the one
[solidus of the price. ☧] […] son (?) of Victor, being present, and with Anoubas her husband
[…] [willingly and of our own] free will (?) we have made this sale and have received
[the gold of the price of the one solidus] less 2 carats, and everything written above is satisfactory to us.

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.
