Μνασέας Ἀθηνοδώρωρι τῶι ἀδελφῶι καὶ διοικητῆι πλεῖστα χαίρειν καὶ διὰ παντὸς ἐρρωμένωι ἄριστα ἐπανάγειν ὡς εὔχομαι· ἐξενίσθην μεγάλως ἐπὶ τῶι Ἑρμᾶν παραγενό μενον μηδὲν ἐνηνοχέναι ὧν ἔγραψεν ἐσχηκέναι παρά σου· ἔγραψέν μοι γὰρ ὅτι ανο μοσων ἔσχηκεν ἀργυρίου δραχμὰς τετρακοσίας ὀγδοήκοντα καὶ ἀντὶ τῶν γεγονυιῶν ων δραχμὰς διακοσίας γίνονται δραχμαὶ χπ· λοιπὸν οὖν διοικητά, τῆς Θερμουθᾶτος φροντίσας ταχύτερον αὐτῇ πέμψον ἵνα μὴ ἐν Δημητρίοις ἀνίε ρος γένηται· καὶ σὺ γὰρ γνοίηςγνοσεισαι ὄτι οὐδέ πω οὐκέτι ἰσχύω· μὴ οὖν διὰ τοὺς περισπασμοὺς ἀμελήσῃς ἀλλʼ ὡς πάντοτʼ ἐποίεις καὶ νῦν αὐτῆς φρόντισον ἐκἐγ καιροῦ ἵνα διπλῆ ἡ χάρις γένηται· ἡμεῖς μὲν γάρ ἐσμεν ἀμν ήμονες· Ἑρμᾶς οὐ μὴ ἀμελήσῃ ἀλλὰ σχεθῇ σε νῦν δὲ ἠμᾶς εἰς ἐλπίδας διὰ τῆς ἐπιστολῆς ἐμβαλώνἐνβαλών μεμυκτήρικεν· καὶ τὰ ἐρίδια· εὖ καλῶς ποιήσας β ταχύτερον πέμψον ἵνʼ ἔχῃ εἰς τὸν χειμῶνα· ἀλλὰ ἐὰν οὐ μή ἐρίδια ἔχῃς, καὶ ἃ πόκια ἔχῃς παρακληθεὶς πέμψον· παρὰ πάντα δὲ σεαυτοῦ ἐπιμέλου ἵνʼ ὑγιαίνῃς ἃ δὴ πρῶτον ἡμῖν τῶν ἐις εὐχήν ἐστιν· ἔρρωσο ἔτους παρὰ Μνασέου Ἀθηνοδώρωι

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.
