Sheet (kollema)
To Protarchos
from Harpokration, slave of Caesar, and from Apollonia daughter of Nanos, with her guardian and guarantor, her husband Chairemon son of Petesis, and from Chairemon himself. Whereas Harpokration happens to have given out to Apollonia his foundling slave infant, still at the breast, ⟦named Agalmation⟧, to be nursed by Apollonia herself with her own milk ⟦for the agreed period⟧, but before the security concerning the nursing of the slave child named Agalmation had been drawn up, it has happened that Apollonia's milk has been spoiled, we agree with one another on the following terms: Apollonia (agrees) that she has been paid in full by Harpokration, both by hand from his house and through the bank in instalments, the nursing wages for the eight months ⟦ten drachmas⟧, and that she makes no claim against Harpokration concerning these matters in any way, ⟦and that she will repel at her own expense anyone who comes against him⟧; and Harpokration for his part (agrees) that he has received back from Apollonia his aforementioned slave child Agalmation and that he makes no claim against either Apollonia or Chairemon regarding anything concerning the nursing; or else, apart from the agreement remaining valid, he, if he transgresses, shall be liable to the damages and the fixed penalty, and Apollonia and Chairemon shall pay back the nursing wages Apollonia has received with the addition of half as a fine and another 300 silver drachmas, as if by a court judgment; nor (shall they make claims) about anything else whatsoever of matters up to the present day in any way.
Year 26 of Caesar, Hathyr 25.

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.
