[…] Horion […] to provide on the first day, for the time being, to Herakleides the officialis 2 double jars of wine and 60 myriads (of denarii).
And again, if you are there, attend to him. For I hope that he is doing our business. And go up with him to my master Dionyttas, until he sends a letter, and likewise to my lords the stationarii, so that they send letters. And as a sensible man, take care of yourself concerning your receipt concerning last year's irrigation (?). And do not neglect it. If there is need, go up with him to Sebastianus. And take care of everything. I pray for your health for many years, lord brother.

From Theodoros son of Horion, epimeletes, at Kynon (Polis), to the epimeletes […]

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.
