Ptolemaios son of Ptolemaios son of […], his mother being […], from the village of Karanis, aged about […], with a scar […] in the middle, acknowledges to Pakysis son of Onnophris son of Satabous, aged about 20, with a scar on the left knee, that he, the acknowledging party, has received from Pakysis by hand 152 silver drachmas and, by the six-choinix measure, […] artabas of wheat, which he owed him under an agreement executed on the 5th of the month Hadrianos through the record office of the village of Bakchias, which agreement Ptolemaios, the acknowledging party, has also returned to Pakysis for annulment and cancellation together with its supplementary entries […]; and that neither Ptolemaios nor those acting for him will make any claim or proceed against Pakysis or those acting for him concerning anything from past times up to the present day in any way […]. I, Ptolemaios son of Ptolemaios, acknowledge that I have received from Pakysis the 152 silver drachmas and the […] artabas of wheat, as stated above. I, Pasion son of Petheus, wrote on his behalf because he is illiterate.

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.
