p.oxy.42.3017 Oxyrhynchos

Edict of Prefect via HGV-meta

Edict of the prefect Pactumeius Magnus on time limits for petitioners. An edict of Titus Pactumeius Magnus, prefect of Egypt, found at Oxyrhynchus, setting a ten-day limit within which people who received the prefect's written reply 'Apply to me before the tribunal' must actually present their case. Those who fail to do so will gain no benefit from the reply; the end of the text is badly damaged. machine translation

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.
