Ἡρακλάμμων Καλλίστῳ τῶι τιμιωτάτῳ τέκνῳ χαίρειν. ἤδη σοι καὶ ἄλλας ἐπιστολὰς ἔπεμψα ἱκανὰς καὶ σύ μοι οὐκέτι ἀντέγραψας. καλῶς οὖν ποήσεις καλωσουνπ ὁπόταν πληρώσῃς τὴν συνγραφὴν ἢ ὡς δήποτε γενέσθαι πρὸς ἐμὲ καθώς μοι ἔγραψας. ἡγοῦμαι γὰρ ὅτι ἄμεινον ἡμᾶς ἀνέχε σθαι ἀλλήλων ἢ ξένων ὡς καὶ πρότερον ἔγραψά σοι περὶ παιδίων ἐὰν που ἐπινοῇς. καὶ γὰρ ἡ γραῖαγρε͂α ἔπεμψέ μοι ἀπὸ Ἀλεξαν δρείας ὅτι ἂν σχῇς Κάλλιστον ἔχεις τὰ παιδία. ἐὰν δὲ παραγένῃ οὐδὲν ἔσται μέσον ἡμῶν τὸ δυνάμενον ἐμὲ ἢ σὲ λυ πῆσαι. ἐφρόντισα δὲ καὶ νεανίσκων πετευριστῶν τριῶν . ταχέως οὖν μοι γράψον ἵνα εὐψυχῶ ἄσπα σαι τὴν ἀγαθὴν Φλουρεντίαν σου καὶ τὰ τέκνα σου καὶ Κάνωπον. ἀσπάζεταί σε Κύριλλα καὶ τὰ κοράσια ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι ἀπόδος Καλλίστῳ ἀπὸ Ἡρακλάμμωνος

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.
