[…] from Syr[…] […] with her guardian, her husband […]os son of Deios […]
My aforementioned father Theon having recently died, I went to my house in the village of Oxyrhyncha, where there is a vaulted room in which a great quantity of heather wood and a very large amount of salt and other things were stored, and I found that some of them had been carried off: wood worth 3,000 drachmas, 20 artabas of salt and a wooden door. Therefore I submit and [ask] that [this] petition [be] placed on record, so that, if [the culprit] is discovered […] my [right of action] may remain […]
[…] with her guardian, her husband […] I have submitted it as [stated above]. […] I wrote on [her] behalf [because she does not know letters].
Year 20 of L[ucius] [Aelius Commodus Caesar] the lord […]

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.
