In the reign of Ptolemy son of Ptolemy and Berenike, the Benefactor Gods, in year 8, when Ptolemy son of Ptolemy son of Stasikrates was priest of Alexander and of the Saviour Gods and of the Sibling Gods and of the Benefactor Gods and of the Father-loving Gods, and the basket-bearer of Arsinoe Philadelphos was Arsinoe daughter of Sosibios, in the month Peritios, at Tholthis in the Oxyrhynchite nome.
Eupolis, Athenian, of the troops of Philon, private soldier, has leased for one year, one sowing and harvest, from the sowing of the ninth year, the crops of which belong to the tenth year, to Alexander son of Krates, Cyrenaean of the Epigone, and to Horos, Oxyrhynchite, temple slave, half of the fallow land in his own kleros, which amounts to 22 arouras, at a rent, including the seed and free of all risk, of 146 artabas of wheat. If Eupolis finds any land in excess of the 22 arouras of the same portion, they shall pay Eupolis a rent, including seed, of 8 artabas of wheat for each aroura. Eupolis shall give them seed for each aroura, 1 artaba of wheat, at the time it is needed. Alexander and Horos shall pay the rents agreed in writing to Eupolis in the month Dystros of the tenth year, in wheat clean and unadulterated, grown on the land, by Eupolis' measure of a chous, with fair measurement, and they shall carry it to Eupolis' house at their own expense. If they do not pay according to what is written, they shall pay Eupolis as the price of each artaba of wheat 10 drachmas. The stubble shall belong to Eupolis, and Eupolis shall have the chaff after threshing, and Eupolis shall have the right of execution against Alexander and Horos, exacting according to the ordinance. Eupolis shall be owner of the crops until he has recovered what is due to him. Eupolis shall guarantee to Alexander and Horos the land and the crops sown on it according to the terms of the lease. If he does not guarantee it according to what is written, Eupolis shall pay Alexander and Horos a penalty of 1,000 silver drachmas, unless some royal hindrance occurs. This contract shall be valid wherever it is produced.

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.
