Description

From Satornilus to Apollonios, referring to the difficulty of getting a boat in order to carry a body to Alexandria and to some delay in the preparation of the body. He got one through the intervention of Clematius the chief priest, who sent a skiff of 60 artabs burthen. He seeks from Apollonios a letter which those bearing the body can carry with them to avoid trouble of some kind during the journey

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
  • 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 — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
