Petition via HGV-meta

Petition for the handing over of an aroura of land. Fragment of a petition from Oxyrhynchus in which a farmer who cultivates only 3 arouras asks an official to hand over to him 1 aroura of land, citing an order of the dioiketes Septimius Apollonius that each person's property be surveyed and returned, so that he can pay the taxes on it. It is dated to year 3 of Trebonianus Gallus and Volusianus (AD 252-253). 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.
