In the sixth year of the reign and consulship of our most divine master Flavius Justinus, eternal Augustus and Imperator, Epeiph 13, of the fifth indiction; […] This deed of dissolution of repudium they draw up and make with one another: on the one part Aurelius Pkylis son of Ioannes, his mother being […], and on the other part […]ia daughter of Psas, her mother being Eucharistia, both from Hermopolis, agreeing with one another as set out below. Whereas they were formerly joined to one another in lawful marriage and partnership of life for the sake of begetting children, in good hopes, […] their life together with one another, but now […] from some evil demon they have wished to separate from one another, accordingly they draw up and make this deed of dissolution of repudium willingly and of their own conviction, without any deceit […] […]

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.
