Ἁρθώνι φίλωιTranslations (1)
Phanias to his dearest Harthonis, greetings.
I blame you greatly on account of the sacks and the double sack. 12 sacks were brought, and up to now the double sack has not yet been brought. So by all means send it through […]. You will tell […] to go down to Nemera on account of the boundary on the 20th, since his plots are being sown. Visit my mother and the house and the doctor and […] the rolled-up diploma; compel the doctor to seal it quickly […] send it at once. And meet my mother and tell her whether the wool of your mother has been combed. If not, you will compel him to comb it.
And meet the sack-maker by the side of the Sarapeum and you will ask him whether Phanias' double sack has been made. And you will inform me about all these things. Farewell. Hathyr 14.
[verso]
To Harthonis, his friend.

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.
