Φίλων Μελανᾷ τῶι
φιλτάτωι χαίρειν.
καὶ κατʼ ὄψιν σε παρεκάλεσα
ἕνεκα τῶν δέκα σταθμίων τῶν ἐρίων, ὅπως
ἐν τάχει αὐτὰ ἀπαρτίσῃς· καὶ νῦν ἐρωτηθεὶς σπούδασον τῷ ἀναδιδόντι σοι τὸ ἐπιστόλιον αὐτὰ δοῦναι.
ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι.Translations (1)
Philon to his dearest Melanas, greetings.
I also urged you in person about the ten stathmia of wool, that you should finish them quickly; and now, being asked, make haste to give them to the one delivering this letter to you.
I pray for your health.

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.
