Petition to a Praefect via HGV-meta
Petition of Dionysia concerning Egyptian and Roman law, with subscription. Fragment of a petition submitted by a woman named Dionysia, apparently to the prefect, concerning whether Egyptian laws or Roman law should apply to someone holding Roman citizenship. The official's reply instructs that the petition be made known to the archive keepers to prevent fraud against the treasury, and that the parties approach him when the opposing side's case is heard; it was filed in the Oxyrhynchite nome on 3 January 267. 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.
