Rescript of Valerian and Gallienus via HGV-meta

Rescript of Valerian and Gallienus on allowances for sacred victors of Antinoopolis. A copy of an imperial rescript of the emperors Valerian and Gallienus answering a complaint by the sacred victors (victors in the sacred games) of Antinoopolis, submitted through Septimius Kallikles. Their allowances had been withheld while Alexandrian victors were paid; the emperors refer them to the prefect of Egypt, Magnius Felix, who is to restore the arrears and future payments if the withholding was unjustified. machine translation

EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
[recto] Imperator Caesar Publius Licinius Valerianus Pius Felix Augustus and Imperator Caesar Publius Licinius Valerianus Gallienus Pius Felix Augustus, to the sacred victors in Antinoopolis, through Septimius Kallikles. […] Since you state that during one period of two of the so-called 'suspensions' among the Alexandrians, the one which lasted 15 months and 7 days, the Alexandrian sacred victors received the allowances for the games from the treasury, but that the payment to you Antinoites was withheld, approach our friend and prefect of Egypt, Magnius Felix, presenting this, and he, if he finds that what was due to you was withheld for no reason, will order that the allowances for the said period be paid and that in future you be given whatever you have received throughout all previous time. […] [verso] Copy of a rescript of Caesar.

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.
