[recto] … 18 years old To Aurelius Diogenes also called Hermias, phylarch of the city of the Oxyrhynchites for the current 14th year, from Aurelius Polydeukes son of Sarapion, his mother being Helene, from the same city. Being of local parents and having been passed over through ignorance in the records, I declare myself and submit this memorandum, and I ask to be entered in the books kept by you, both of the poll-tax (laographia) and of the summary register, in the Heroon quarter, in which I also perform the liturgy of city guard. I am 18 years old in the current 14th year, and I swear the oath customary among Romans that I have not lied. Year 14 of Imperator Caesar Publius Licinius Gallienus Germanicus Maximus Persicus Maximus Pius Felix Augustus, Epeiph. I, Aurelius Polydeukes, have submitted it. I, Aurelius Herakleides also called …, wrote on his behalf since he does not know letters. […] Heroon […] … 18 years old […] … inhabitant (?) […] … […] … [verso] …

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.
