[…] to the epistates of the phylakitai, from Patermouthion son of Akousilaos, Macedonian, of the (troops of?) Nepheros, one of those from Ibion Argaiou in the division of Polemon of the Arsinoite nome. […] request (?) […] […] […] together with others […] he insulted me, (striking me) with many blows on whatever parts of my body they happened to fall. Therefore I ask, if it seems good to you, that you order a letter to be written to the epistates of the village to send the accused to you, so that I may obtain justice from you and he may meet with the fitting punishment as a warning to others, and that I may be helped. Farewell. (Docket:) Write to the epistates to do what is just. […] Year 26 of Caesar, Epeiph 12.

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.
