κυρίῳ μου γεούχῳ Παπνοῦτις
χαίρειν.
καθὼς ἐκέλευσάς μοι ἀπαντῆσαι εἰς Βερκὺ ἵνα
παραλάβω τὸν σῖτον αὐτῶν, εὑρὼν δὲ τὸν σῖτον
αὐτῶν ἐκ κριθῶν οὐκ ἐδυνήθην ὑποδέξαι ἄχρις
λάβω παρὰ σοῦ ὅρον περὶ τούτου. τὰ δὲ ὀνόματα
ἅπερ δέδωκεν ἡμῖν ὁ γραμματεὺς τῆς πόλεως
εὑρέθη διαφέροντα τῷ Ψινοὺρ καὶ Πραοῦ.
οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ὁ Ψινοὺρ ἀπαιτῆσαι μεθʼ ἡμῶν
τὰ ὀνόματα διαφέροντα τῷ Πραοῦ, λέγων ὅτι
οὐκ ἔχω πρᾶγμα, οὐδὲ καὶ ὁ Πραοῦς οὐκ ἦλθεν ἀπαιτῆσαι αὐτοὺς μεθʼ ἡμῶν, λέγων
ὅτι οὐ σχολάζω. καὶ περὶ τοῦ μέτρου αὐτῶν
μαλαμ…εις καθὼς ὑποβάλλουσιν αὐτοὶ ὅτι ἴσον
ἐστὶν τοῦ καγκέλλου τοῦ δημοσίου. μάθε δὲ ὅτι ὁ πραιπόσιτος αὐτῶν τη…[…]…[…]νεκεν ἐρχόμενος στρατιώτας της…[…]… καὶ ἀπαιτεῖ αὐτοὺς
ὡς βούλεται. λοιπὸν, γράψον μοι εἰ θέλεις με ὑποδέξαι περὶ τοῦ σίτου καὶ τοῦ μέτρου. τινὲς αὐτῶν
λέγουσιν ὅτι δεῦ μέτρησον, ἐὰν δὲ εὕρομεν
ἀπʼ αὐτῶν ἀγνώμονας, λαμβάνομεν καὶ ἡμεῖς
στρατιώτας καὶ βακλεύομεν αὐτοὺς. εἰ μὲν θέλεις,
ὡς καὶ ὁ ἕτερος πραιπόσιτος ὑποδέχει, καὶ ἡμεῖς ὑποδέξομεν. ἀντίγραψόν μοι ἐν τάχει ὡς βούλῃ.
ποίησον δὲ τὸν δεσπότην μου γεοῦχον Εὐλόγιον
γράψαι τῷ Ψινοὺρ ἀπειλὰς πολλάς. εἰ μὲν δύνασαι ἀπαντῆσαι ἐνταῦθα ἔσται πρᾶγμα ὑποθη[…]ν. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι, κύριέ μου γεοῦχε.

ὑποδέξαι τῷ αὐτῷ μέτρῳ ἵνα παραδῶ τῷ βοηθῷ Ἀπολλωνίου καθὼς κελεύει
ἀντίγραψόν μοι· οὕτως γὰρ καὶ ὁ βοηθὸς Ἀπολλωνίου συνέθετο μετʼ αὐτοῦ καὶ χεῖρα
αὐτῷ ἐπιδέδωκεν ἐπὶ τούτοις τοῖς ὅροις. ὁ γραμματεὺς δὲ τῆς κώμης Βερκὺ διέστειλέν
μοι τὰ ὀνόματα καθὼς πρὸ τοῦ τελοῦντες.
ἀπόδος τῷ δεσπότῃ μου γεούχῳ.Connections

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.
