Application to the Senate via HGV-meta

Application to the council of Oxyrhynchus concerning a son's nomination to the gymnasiarchy. Fragmentary application by Aurelius Pasion to the council of Oxyrhynchus about the nomination of his young son to municipal office, apparently the gymnasiarchy. Pleading limited means after his shipping service, he offers to undertake a reduced share of days of gymnasiarchy and euthenarchy, with payments split between Thoth and the harvest, referring to arrangements with Asklepiades and to the prefect Valerius Firmus. 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.
