p.nyu.2.39 335Karanis (?) (Arsinoites)

Roman Will via HGV-meta

Roman will bequeathing sheep, house property and a slave. A fragmentary will drawn up in Roman form by an Aurelius, appointing heirs (including men whose father was Eudaimon), leaving sheep, house rooms, a slave and movable goods to relatives such as the daughter of his dead son Eudaimon, and arranging his burial. It is dated by the consuls of AD 335 and probably comes from Karanis in the Fayum. machine translation

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.
