Transcription
Νεμεσιανὸς Κολλούθω τῷ φιλτάτῳ χαίρειν.
ὁ Σύρος πρὸ πολλοῦ τὸ τάλαντον εἴληφε καὶ Νεῖλος ἔτι πάλαι
τάλαντον α δραχμὰς ψ, καὶ τὰς λοιπὰς δὲ αὐτῷ μετεβαλόμεθα· μὴ οὖν ταρασσέτω
πρὸς ἡμᾶς τοσούτῳ χρόνῳ ἀμέμπτως ἡμῖν κοινωνοῦντα·
τὴν δὲ λοιπάδα οὐκ ἐν πολλῷ οὖσαν τοῖς λινούφοις τήρησον
μηδὲν βλαπτόμενος· ἐν γὰρ τούτοις αἱ σπουδαὶ τῶν
φίλων φαίνονται. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι.Translations (1)
Nemesianus to his dearest Kolluthos, greetings.
Syros received the talent long ago, and Neilos some time ago 1 talent 700 drachmas, and we have transferred the rest to him as well. So let him not make trouble with us, who have been his partners blamelessly for so long. As for the balance, which is not much, keep it for the linen-weavers, without suffering any loss yourself; for it is in such matters that the zeal of friends is shown.
I pray for your health.

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.
