μετὰ τὴν ὑπατείαν τῶν δεσποτῶν ἡμῶν Κωνσταντίνου
Σεβαστοῦ τὸ η ἔτος καὶ Κωνσταντίνου τοῦ ἐπιφανεστάτου Καίσαρος τὸ δ ἔτος

Φλαουίῳ Ἰουλιανῷ λογιστῇ Ὀξυρυγχείτου

προσενηνέχθαι σου τῇ τάξει ὑπὸ τοῦ ἐνάρχου πρυτάνεως
διʼ οὗ τὸ ἡμέτερον ὄνομα ὑπεβλήθη εἰς τοὺς ἐνάρχειν μέλλοντας,
προσκιμένης καὶ ἀρχῆς ἐξηγητικῆς προσονομασθείσης μοι,

After the consulship of our masters Constantine Augustus for the 8th time and Constantine the most illustrious Caesar for the 4th time, Tybi 17.
To Flavius Julianus, logistes of the Oxyrhynchite nome,
from Aurelius Diogenes son of Ammonios, from the same city.
It would be superfluous to remind your skill of what is laid down by the authority of the laws, which clearly orders that, once an appeal has been lodged, no innovation is to be made. Since, then, on the present day it came to my ears that a letter had been submitted to your office by the prytanis in office, by which our name was put forward among those who are to hold office, with the office of exegetes also attached and assigned to me by name, and I am at once lodging an appeal against those very persons who nominated me to the exegeteship, having very many just grounds in this matter, in order that these rights may not be prejudiced before judgment and that nothing may be held in suspense by the letter, I ask, since the judgment on all matters depends once and for all on my lord the most perfect prefect of Egypt Flavius Magnilianus, that […] the prytanis, so that he may know that nothing […] in circumvention of my plea is to be done. […]
I, Aurelius Diogenes, [submitted this] […]

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.
