I undertake to lease from the state for five years from the present third year of Antoninus Caesar the lord, of the unproductive (hypologos) land near Senao, from the allotments of Herakleides and Herakleides, 3 arouras, whose neighbours are: on the south a field, on the north and east a public dyke, on the west the land of Didymion son of Demetrios; so that each year I may sow and cut wood with whatever I choose except wheat, woad and ochomenion, and that I may have the pasturage and after-pasturage, at a rent for the whole of 4 drachmas in all each year, which I will pay each year in the month Kaisareios. If any part becomes unflooded, it will be allowed to me, and after the five-year period I shall not be compelled to continue the lease.
Year 3 of Imperator Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius, Hathyr 11.
I, Ophelas also called Korax, have submitted this.
Through Hermes, nomographos […]

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.
