[recto] Aurelius Pemes son of Patas, his mother being Tanouphis, from the village of Karanis, aged about 45, with a scar on the right shin, to Antonius Sarapammon, gymnasiarch, councillor, former strategos, of the city of the Arsinoites, greetings. I acknowledge by this document that I have received from you from hand to hand ten talents and three thousand drachmas of silver, total 10 talents 3,000 drachmas, as a loan for one month from the present day, which I shall of necessity repay to you on the 15th of the coming month of Thoth without interest and without delay; and if I do not repay by the appointed date, the interest for the further time shall follow upon me, and you, Sarapammon, shall have the right of execution upon demand both against me, Pemes, who make this acknowledgement, and against all my property, as if by legal judgement. The document, written in a single copy, shall be valid, and having been asked the formal question I have given my assent. In the consulship of our lords Constantine Augustus for the 7th time and Constantius the most illustrious Caesar for the 1st time, Mesore 20. I, Aurelius Pemes, have received the ten talents and three thousand drachmas of silver and I shall repay them in full on the appointed date, as stated above. I, Aurelius Serenos son of Heron, wrote on his behalf, as he is illiterate. [verso] [Note of hand of Pemes] from Karanis […]

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.
