To Ptollarion, former gymnasiarch, son of Ptollarion, former gymnasiarch, from Orsenouphis son of Komon, grandson of Herakleios, from the village of Kerkesoucha Orous. I wish to lease from you for four years from the coming 17th year of Aurelius Antoninus Caesar the lord, from the cleruchic land belonging to you near the village of Areos, 3 1/2 arouras in one parcel: in the first and third year for sowing wheat, at a rent for the two years, each year, including the 3 1/2 artabas of wheat seed which I shall receive, of 52 1/2 artabas of wheat in total each year, by your own four-choinix measure; and in the second and fourth year for sowing grass (fodder), sowing it for you as pasture for sheep, all free from deductions and risks; and I shall carry out each year all the work on the arouras that is required, at my own expense, at the proper seasons, and I shall pay the rent each year in the month of Pauni on the threshing floor, new, clean and unadulterated, the measuring being done through one of your people, the costs of transport and urging (?) for the wheat sowing being my responsibility, but the transport of the rent being yours; and after the term I shall hand over the arouras clean of rushes, couch-grass and all weeds except reeds; and you shall guarantee the lease to me and keep it free from public charges, if you agree to lease.

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.
