EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
Liberalis to Kronion, greetings. I have sent the donkey over to you with the oxen. Let it eat (?) until I arrive, and let the vine-wood be carried over to Tebtynis. Receive 8 drachmas from Bellas and give them to Isidoros; he also has another 8 drachmas of mine. And let 20 loads of reed also be carried over for the half-quarter (?). You will tell Protis: if I do not arrive with you by the 4th of the Egyptian month, borrow (?) the 40 drachmas from my stewardess and send them for ropes. Say nothing to her except on the fourth.

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.
