Aurelius Theon also called Zoilion, son of Dionysios, his mother being Serapias, from the city of Oxyrhynchus, to Aurelius Theon also called Zoilion and however he is styled, greetings. I acknowledge that I have received from you, of wheat of the produce of the past year 2, 13 1/2 artabas, which I shall also repay to you in the month of Epeiph at Antipera Pela, the same 13 1/2 artabas of wheat, by the measure with which I received them, without interest. If I do not repay as written, I shall pay you the aforesaid wheat with the addition of one half and interest for the overdue period, you having the right of execution upon me and upon all my property. This note of hand, written in a single copy by me, Aurelius Theon, is valid, and having been asked the formal question whether this is rightly and properly done, I acknowledged it.
Year 3 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Antonius Gordianus Pius Felix Augustus, Tybi 8.
The account concerning what my father owes you remains valid for you.

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.
