Αὐρήλιος Σοῦρις Πετεχῶντος μητρὸς Τβήκιος
ἀπὸ κώμης Κύσεως τῆς Ἱβιτῶν πόλεως
ὡς ἐτῶν μη οὐλὴ ἐπὶ τοῦ ἀριστεροῦ ποδὸς Αὐρηλίῳ Ψεντϕθοῦτι Πετενεϕώτου μητρὸς Ὀσερίνιος ἐξωπυλίτῃ
Διοσπόλεως καταμένοντι ἐν νεκρίᾳ Πτύτεως χαίρειν.
ὁμολογῶ ἠριθμῆσθαι παρὰ σοῦ εἰς ἰδίαν μου χρείαν ἀργυρίου
Σεβαστῶν νομίσματος τάλαντα δύο, γίνονται τάλαντα β, ἅπερ σοι ἀποδώσω σὺν τοῖς ἐπισυναχθεῖσι τόκοις ἄχρι ἀποδόσεως,
εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀποδῶ, ἐξέσται σοι χρήσασθαι κατὰ παντοίας μου
εὐπορίας. τὸ γράμμα κύριον καὶ ἐπερωτηθεὶς ὡμολόγησα.
ὑπατείας τῶν δεσποτῶν ἡμῶν Διοκλητιανοῦ
πατρὸς Αὐγούστων τὸ ι καὶ Γαλερίου Οὐαλερίου Μαξιμιανοῦ
Αὐγούστου τὸ ζ τῇ πρὸ ιβ καλανδῶν
Μαρτίων. Αὐρήλιος Σοῦρις ὁ προκείμενος ἔσχον
τὰ προκείμενα τάλαντα δύο καὶ ἀποδώσω σὺν τόκοις ὡς πρόκειται.
Αὐρήλιος Φιλήμων Ἀγαθοῦ Δαίμονος ἔγραψα ὑπὲρ αὐτοῦ γράμματα
μὴ εἰδότος.

[recto]
Aurelius Souris, son of Petechon, his mother being Tbekis, from the village of Kysis in the city of the Ibitai, aged about 48, with a scar on the left foot, to Aurelius Psentphthous, son of Petenephotes, his mother being Oserinis, extramural resident of Diospolis, living in the necropolis of Ptytis, greetings.
I acknowledge that I have received from you, for my own use, two talents of silver of the coinage of the Augusti, total 2 talents, which I will repay to you together with the interest accumulated until repayment; and if I do not repay, you shall have the right of execution against all my resources. The document is valid, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent.
In the consulship of our lords Diocletian, father of the Augusti, for the 10th time, and Galerius Valerius Maximianus Augustus, for the 7th time, on the 12th day before the Kalends of March.
I, Aurelius Souris, the aforesaid, have received the aforesaid two talents and will repay them with interest as stated above. I, Aurelius Philemon, son of Agathos Daimon, wrote on his behalf since he does not know letters.

From Psentphous.

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.
