Eurylochos to his dearest Athenodoros, greeting and continued good health and prosperity.
On the 13th Konon brought the 801 drachmas which you wrote to give to the slave. It was found that […] are being rejected (?) by me as not acceptable […] of bronze […] having added on the following day I paid to Aniketos, in the presence of Parthenios, the 800 in full. There is talk of the voyage upriver until another […]
Write to Diogas your brother so that in […] 150 (artabas) of wheat, since you have sent instructions about it, 1,450 (artabas) of wheat, so that you may have the artabas of wheat in Busiris, […] all is […]. Do not write and do not […] send to the Troites (?) with those sealed by the merchants, except 1. For they are in Tanchai and cannot be loaded at present.
For the rest, take care of yourself so that you stay healthy, which I consider most important. Farewell. Year 21 of Caesar, Choiak 25.
So do not hold back the dispatch of the tickets (?).
Arsinoite.

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.
