[…] undisputed […] to the […] dared to submit a report to Asklepiades, royal scribe, concerning vacant plots ⟦mine, concerning our vacant plots⟧ in Soknopaiou Nesos, wishing to buy them from the Idios Logos as being ownerless, […] although these were bought by me from Chairemon son of Herodes, prophet of Souchos the most great god, who also conveyed them to me by registered deed in year 41 ⟦being his paternal property from his father and⟧ in accordance with the title deeds that I hold ⟦maternal⟧, and which I also rebuilt on the old foundation. When the report was brought to you for the assize, you set a deadline to come down to Alexandria before your tribunal within the month of Epeiph. Having therefore come down within the deadline, I ask that my name be entered in the record, until, after you have heard the case, I may assert my title deeds and be released from the slanderous accusation, so that I may be benefited. Farewell.
Year 1 of Tiberius Caesar Augustus […]

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.
