[… lines lost …] [… unfinished or smelling (?) from the] same wine, until the month of Tybi of the same indiction, [I agree to exchange it for you for good] wine without delay and without any [objection], judgment or lawsuit, and I am ready to deliver to you the […] wine from your estate, you having the right of execution [against me and against] all my property, as if by legal judgment. The [contract is valid] and guaranteed, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent. I, Aurelius Pames son of Dionysios, the aforesaid, have been paid [the full price] of the 220 knidia of wine and I will deliver at the proper time [as aforesaid]. I, [Aurelius] Phoibammon son of Kollouthos, from Hermopolis, at his request wrote on his behalf, as he does not know letters. I, […] son of Taurinos, from Hermopolis, am witness to the contract and to the payment [of the gold of the] price of the wine. I, Aurelius Victor son of Horos, from Hermopolis, am witness to the contract [and to the payment of the gold] of the price of the wine. […] Written by me, Ioannes.

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.
