p.mil.2.56 VOxyrhynchos
Paramonè (?) via HGV-meta
Labour contract (paramone) with advance of one gold solidus. A fragmentary contract from Oxyrhynchus, 5th century AD, in which Aurelius Martyrios, a stonecutter, acknowledges receiving an advance of one gold solidus from a Flavius connected with a landowner, on condition that he remain and work for him, apparently as a tarsikarios (weaver of Tarsian-style cloth). He undertakes to repay the advance without delay, with his property as security. 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.
