EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
[…] dry land (?) […] the date palms falling due in the coming year, and the land for sowing with whatever crops I choose except safflower, in return for all the public dues measured and paid on them; and further, as the survey of the same year determines, free from deductions and from risk. And I shall carry out all the proper work, as much as is fitting, each at my own expense at the appropriate time, and after the term I shall hand it back as I too received it, after the gathering of the crops. You, Papontos and associates, shall not be permitted after the term to hold me to this lease, because it has been leased for the coming year. If it seems good to you, lease it on these terms. Horion […] I request. Year […] […] Hadrianus […]

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.
