[recto] † In the consulship of Flavius Belisarius the most glorious, month of Mesore 4, indiction 13. To Flavius Strategius the all-renowned former consul, magister militum, most glorious patrician, leading citizen both of Herakleopolis and of this splendid city of the Oxyrhynchites, through Menas his servant, who makes the stipulation and acquires for his own master, the same all-renowned man, the right of action and liability, Aurelius Victor son of Anouthios, mother Tekrampe, originating from the hamlet of Little Terythis of Aetios in the Oxyrhynchite nome, an estate of your magnificence, registered farmer and brother of the steward, greetings. Since there is now again need of one kalathos for the landowner's mill entrusted to me and to the other farmers of the same estate with me, which is situated in our estate, I came up to the city and asked your magnificence, through those most splendid persons attached to it, to order that the said kalathos be given to the same aforementioned mill for the completion of the same mill; and indeed it ordered this and supplied me with the strobilos and kalathos, new and serviceable, through Elias the millstone-cutter here, on this present day, which is Mesore 4 of the current year 211/180, of the present thirteenth indiction, for the bread-making of the fourteenth indiction; and for the security and proof of your house I have made this written acknowledgement, which is valid though written in a single copy, and having been asked the formal question I agreed. I, Aurelius Victor son of Anouthios, the aforesaid, have made this written acknowledgement, having received the said strobilos and kalathos of the mill, and everything is agreed by me as stated above. † I, Aurelius Anoup son of Joseph, having been asked, wrote on his behalf since he is illiterate. ☧ Executed through me, Theon. (in Latin letters) Executed through me, Theon. [verso] † Written acknowledgement of Victor son of Anouthios from the hamlet of Little Terythis of Aetios, of receipt of ⟦strobilos and⟧ one kalathos.

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.
