Aurelius Thonis also called Dioskourides, and his wife Aurelia Serenilla, daughter of Syrion also called Eustochios, former gymnasiarch of the glorious and most glorious city of the Oxyrhynchites, greetings. We agree that we have separated from our life together, and that we neither make nor will make any claim against one another, nor will proceed against one another, concerning any matter at all, written or unwritten, in any way whatsoever relating to this same life together […], and that it is permitted to each of us […] to unite in whatever marriage he or she chooses, this being without liability and free from claim, because each of us has received back his or her own property in full. This deed of release and freedom from claims, written in duplicate so that each party […], is valid. […]

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.
