Αὐρήλιος Εὐδαίμων ὁ καὶ Ἑλλάδιος γενόμενος εὐθηνιάρχης κοσμητὴς ἐξηγητὴς ὑπομνηματογράφος βουλευτὴς τῆς λαμπροτάτης πόλεως τῶν Ἀλεξανδρέων, γυμνασιαρχήσας βουλευτὴς ἔναρχος πρύτανις τῆς λαμπρᾶς καὶ λαμπροτάτης Ὀξυρυγχιτῶν πόλεως. τὰ τῆς ἀνακομιδῆς τῆς εὐθενείας τῶν γενναιοτάτων στρατιωτῶν οὐδὲ βραχεῖαν ἀνάθεσιν ἐπιδέχεται, καὶ διὰ τούτο, καὶ γραμμάτων ἡμᾶς εἰς τοῦτο κατεπειγόντων τοῦ κρατίστου διοικητοῦ Αὐρηλίου Πρωτέα ἔτι δὲ καὶ τοῦ κρατίστου Ἀμμωνίου, καὶ τῶν πλοίων ἤδη τῶν ὑποδεχομένων τὰ εἴδη ἐφορμούντων, ἐδέησεν εἰς ἐπιμελητῶν ὀνομασίαν συναγαγεῖν πρόσκλητον βουλήν, ἵνα προτεθείσης σκέψεως περὶ μόνου τούτου τοῦ κεφαλαίου τέλεσιν τὴν ταχίστην λάβῃ τὰ λειτουργήματα. ἵνα οὖν πάντες ἑκόντες ὦσι βουλευταὶ τοῦτο γνόντες ἐν τῇ σήμερον ἥτις ἐστὶν ιε, τὰ γράμματα δημοσίᾳ πρόκειται. καλῶς δὲ ἔχειν ἐνόμισα γινώσκειν ὑμᾶς διὰ τοῦδε τοῦ προγράμματος συντεταχέναι ἡμᾶς ὑμῖν συνειδόσιν πρὸς τὰ κελευσθέντα ὀξέως συναχθῆναι, οὐδενὸς ἄλλου ἐν τῇ παρούσῃ συνόδῳ μένοντος, ψηφίσασθαί τε τὰς τῶν λειτουργῶν χειροτονίας. ἔτους β[…]ιε.

EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
Aurelius Eudaimon also called Helladios, former euthenarch, kosmetes, exegetes, hypomnematographos, councillor of the most illustrious city of the Alexandrians, ex-gymnasiarch, councillor, prytanis in office of the illustrious and most illustrious city of the Oxyrhynchites. The transport of the provisions for the most noble soldiers admits not even a brief postponement, and for this reason, since letters of his excellency the dioiketes Aurelius Proteas and also of his excellency Ammonios are pressing us on this matter, and since the boats that are to receive the goods are already lying at anchor, it has become necessary to convene an extraordinary meeting of the council for the nomination of overseers, so that, with deliberation proposed on this single item of business, the liturgies may be carried out as quickly as possible. So that all the councillors, knowing this, may attend willingly on this present day, which is the 15th, the letters are publicly displayed. And I thought it proper that you should know through this notice that we have instructed you, being aware of what has been ordered, to assemble promptly, no other business being before the present session, and to vote on the elections of the liturgists. [Year 2 …] 15.

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.
