Ἕλενος Σιλβανῷ τῷ κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ χαίρειν. καὶ διὰ Πεκύσιος τοῦ ὀνηλάτου σοι ἔπεμψα ἵνα πέμψῃς ἡ μῖν εἰς τὰ ἔργα δύο τάλαντα ἵνα εὕρωμεν δοῦναι τοῖς ἀπὸ Ἰβι ῶνος, πάνυ γὰρ ἐνοχλοῦμαι ὑπʼ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἵνα τοῖς καταμηνίοις ἡμῶνημιν δῶ καὶ τοῖς πλαστοποιοῖς καὶ εἰς τὰ ἄλλα ἔργα. οἶνον γὰρ οὐ οὐδεὶς ἠγόρασεν ἀφʼ ἡμῶν. κατεσχέθη Ἥρων ὁ κεραμεὺς ὑπὸ τοῦ Κιαλῆ τοῦ κωμάρχου καὶ ἔβαλε αὐτὸν εἰς τὰς δεκα νίας ἄρας ἄλλους τοὺς ὄν τας ἐν τῇ δεκανίᾳ καὶ τοῦτον ἔβαλεν. διελέχθην οὖν αὐ τῷ τούτου ἕνεκεν καὶ πρότερον κήδεσθαι. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι πολλοῖς χρόνοις. ἐνοχλοῦσι δὲ ἡμῖν καὶ αἱ δεκανίαι ἕνεκεν τῶν ἀνδρῶν ἡμῶν ὑπὲρ τῆς τιμῆς τοῦ οἴνου καὶ τοῦ ὀνηλάτου τοῦ ἀπερχομένου εἰς τὸ μεγα

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.
