π ἐπειδὴ ὁ πλινθευτὴς λέγει τὸν τόπον τοῦ υἱοῦ Νιννοῦδος ὀστρακώδηὀστρακωδης καὶ μὴ πεποιημένον εἰς πλινθεῦσαιπλινθευαι, ὡς δὲ λέγει ὅτι ἐὰν σκυλῇ πρὸς τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ οἰκονόμου τοῦ ἁγίου Ἰούστου παρέχει σοι τόπον ὀλίγον ἢ ἀντὶς τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἢ ἐξ ἀριστερῶν αὐτοῦ ἤγουν ἐκ δεξιῶν, καταξίωσον χαρίσασθαί μοι σκυλμὸν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἀλλʼ ἄρτι καὶ εἰπεῖν αὐτῷ. εἰκὸς παρέχει σοι τὴν χάριν, ἐκ τοῦ γὰρ ἐγγύς ἐστιν. ἀλλʼ οὕτως λέγεις αὐτῷ ὅτι ἐὰν θέλῃςθέλεις παρέχομέν σοι τὸ ἐνοίκιον, μόνον πάρεχέ μοι. τὸν δὲ θεόν σου εὐθὺςμοι, τὸν δὲ θεὸν σοῦ. εὐθὺς διὰ Φοιβάμμωνος δήλωσόν μοι τὴν παρʼ αὐτοῦ ἀπόκρισιν. εἰπὲ δὲ αὐτῷ ὅτι ὀλίγην μόνον θέλομεν καὶ οὐ πολλήν. ἐπίδος Ἰωάννῃ παρὰ Φιλοξένουενου.

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.
