For the strategia of the coming year 3. To Aurelius Herakleios also called Hermias, strategos of the Oxyrhynchite nome. I, Aurelius Pekysis son of Apion, grandson of Pekysis, my mother being Thamouis, from the glorious and most glorious city of the Oxyrhynchites, nominated by the phylarch of the same city for the coming year 3 to the service of the strategia, swear by the Fortune of our lord Marcus Aurelius Probus Caesar Augustus that I will take up the said service and carry it out, being present, soundly and faithfully, and attending the strategia without interruption so as to be blamed in nothing; otherwise may I be liable to the oath. I have provided as my guarantor Aurelius Sarapammon son of Polemon, his mother being Herakleia, from the same city, who is present and consents. Year 2 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Probus Pius Felix Augustus, Epeiph 25. (2nd hand) I, Aurelius Pekysis, have sworn the oath and will carry out the duty as stated above.

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.
