Application for a Summons via HGV-meta

Application for a summons concerning vine land of Maronis near Letopolis. Mnesitheos son of Theon asks the strategos of the Arsinoite nome, Gaius Julius Asinianus, to serve a summons on Heration son of Maron and another man who are claiming vine land belonging to his wife Maronis, after an earlier judge appointed by the prefect Lusius Geta had confirmed her ownership. He wants them to appear at the next assize of the prefect Tiberius Claudius Balbillus, which places the petition around AD 55-59. machine translation

EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
To Gaius Julius Asinianus, strategos of the Arsinoite nome, from Mnesitheos son of Theon. On the basis of the accusation and summons-notice for service which I made in the fourteenth year of the deified Claudius against other men and against Heration son of Maron, on the grounds that they were wrongfully holding the property of my wife Maronis, Heration 6 arouras of vine land near Letopolis in the division of Herakleides, and the other men other property of Maronis, I obtained for all of them from Lucius Lusius Geta, the former prefect, as judge Gaius Julius Iollas, priest and gymnasiarch of Alexandria, who after hearing me and the others decided that ownership should remain with my wife, in accordance with the minutes which I have. But since Heration disappeared and did not appear at the trial, he was summoned by public notice by Geta, and as he did not appear even so, I had until now remained abroad on purpose, since no opportunity for the judgment had arisen. But now that I have arrived and have learned that Mys[…] claims 3 arouras of the 6 arouras of vine land, and Heration himself the other 3 arouras, I myself, not keeping quiet but holding all the more firmly to the accusation against the accused, submit this memorandum and ask that, once it has been registered with you, a copy be served on the accused through an attendant, so that, being informed, they may appear wherever our lord the prefect Tiberius Claudius Balbillus holds his next assize, in order that through my petition to him I may obtain my rights and they what is fitting. Farewell. […] fourteen (?) […] Augustus Germanicus Imperator […] former (?) […] […] […]philos (?) […]

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.
