Ἀμμῶνις Θερμουτίωνι
τῷ ἀδελφῷ πλεῖστα χαίρειν.
πρὸ μὲν πάντων τὸ προσκύνημά σου ποιῶ καθʼ ἑκάστην
ἡμέραν παρὰ τῷ θεῷ. ἔπεμψέ μοι Διονύσιος ὅτι πάντα
εἴληφε Θερμουτίων καὶ
οὐδέν μοι ἔπεμψας. πᾶν
οὖν ποίησον, ἄδελφε, πέμψον μοι τὸ μαφόρτιον καὶ
τὸ δελματίκιον λινοῦν
καὶ περὶ οὗ εἴρηκά σοι λωδικίου. οἶσθα μου γὰρ τὸ μέτριον,
ὅτι χρῄζω αὐτῶν. Ἡσοιχίῳ
αὐτὰ δός. ἀσπάζεταί σε
ἡ σύμβιός μου, ἀσπάζεταί
σε ἡ θυγάτηρ μου Θεωνίλλα
ἀσπάζω …α τὸν ἀδελφόν μου Σταίφανον.
ἐρρῶσθαι ὑμᾶς εὔχομαι.
ἀσπάζω Ἀμμῶνιν τὸν κιθαρωδόν
[v]
… Θερμουτίωνι παρὰ
Ἀμμωνίου ἀδελφοῦ.Translations (1)
[recto]
Ammonis to Thermoution his brother, very many greetings.
Before all else I make obeisance for you every day before the god. Dionysios sent word to me that Thermoution has received everything, and you have sent me nothing. So do everything, brother, send me the cloak (maphorion) and the linen dalmatic and the blanket I told you about. For you know my modest means, that I need them. Give them to Hesychios. My wife greets you, my daughter Theonilla greets you. I greet … my brother Stephanos. I pray for your health.
I greet Ammonis the citharode.
[verso]
… to Thermoution from Ammonios his brother.

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.
