EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
To Aurelius Sarapion also called Ammonios, priest, archidikastes and in charge of the supervision of the chrematistai and the other courts, from Aurelius Sarapion son of Theon son of Diogenes, his mother being Sarapous, from the city of Oxyrhynchus, and from Aurelius Moros son of Saras, his mother being Sisois, and Aurelia Penierax daughter of […]atos, her mother being Taarthonis, both from the same city, Penierax acting without a guardian according to the customs of the Romans by the right of children. Moros and Penierax acknowledge that they have sold to Sarapion, from now for all time, the half share belonging to them in the same city in the quarter of the Dromos of Thoeris of a small house with all its fixtures and entrances and exits, of which the whole has as neighbours: on the south, Saras; on the north, the purchaser and his brother; on the east, formerly Heron and partners; on the west, a public street. The 160 drachmas of silver in imperial coin agreed as the price of this half share of the small house and all fixtures Moros and Penierax have received on the spot from the purchaser, from hand to hand, in full. Sarapion, therefore, with his descendants and those who will succeed him, shall possess and own this half share of the small house and all fixtures, and shall have the power to manage and administer it in whatever manner he chooses without hindrance, and neither Moros nor Penierax nor anyone else on their behalf shall proceed against him in any manner; and they shall deliver the aforesaid half share free from the registration of men and from the cultivation of royal and estate land and from every kind of debt, both public and private, and from anything else whatsoever. Anyone who proceeds or lays claim in any manner whatsoever on account of the share they will immediately repel at their own expense as if by judgment. To the formal question whether this has been done thus rightly and properly, the purchaser asked, and the sellers agreed. […]

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.
