Since you have instructed us to keep the crops on the threshing floors in our fields in safe custody until the dekaprotoi have received in full each man's public dues, we accordingly agree, swearing by the Fortune of our lords Diocletian and Maximian Augusti, to keep watch and to allow no one to touch them until each has paid in full the measure still owed to the dekaprotoi of the districts, the measurings being carried out so that no complaint may follow; otherwise may we be liable to the oath. Year 8 and 7 of our lords Diocletian and Maximian Augusti, Pauni 19. […]

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.
