Petition to the Praefect via HGV-meta
Petition to the prefect about fraudulent land registration in the census. A petition from two councillors of Arsinoe to the prefect of Egypt Clodius Culcianus, complaining of fraud against the treasury during the census of Septimius Sabinus. They allege that a boundary-surveyor and others, with help from the census officials, registered land under false names so that the dues could not be collected, and ask that the real holders be made to pay. machine translation

To Clodius Culcianus, the most eminent prefect of Egypt,
from […] and […]agathos, both councillors of the city of the Arsinoites. In the census [carried out by Septimius] Sabinus the censitor, much trickery has been practised against the treasury […] of the dekaprotoi, not by the censitor but by certain wrongdoers […] boundary-surveyor, having everything at his own discretion, not (?) […] in the declarations of the arouras which he himself farms and enjoys the produce of, a certain Horion […] and a certain Souchammon, who also himself holds land there, substituted (names) not […] his brother Serenos and Manon, and likewise also Sara[…] and Taesis and Panetbeus, and to them the land belonging to him […] they have been able to commit wrongdoing and to dare it, having the iuratores […] as accomplices in what they did, so that […] those [collect]ing the imperial dues have been unable to find what was declared […] to be compelled to pay the dues on their behalf. Since therefore we are able to show to the […] that the land was registered under these names, for this reason […] to order, by whatever means you approve, that those men be compelled to pay the dues for the [land] […] hatred of wrongdoing you can […]

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.
