The aforementioned Pabanos, happening to be there holding a small scraper (?) in his hands, wanted to kill the pigs, and when I restrained him, since he had in no way been harmed by the pigs, he desisted from his attack on the pigs and attacked me, wanting to drown me in the water channel, so that had it not been by some providence the […] of the oxen working the water-lift […] […] by him in the water channel […] […] […] […]

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.
