EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
[recto] † On another occasion too I appealed to your brotherly lordship on behalf of your farmer from Sinkere, and you instructed the people from Sinkere that no one should pass through him. Until now they have not passed through him. But today, which is the fifth day of the week, they came to his place and want to demand wool from him on account of the gonachia (cloaks). I therefore ask you to order the arrangement befitting you, that they not come to him, and to instruct them not to harass him in future. Simply nothing remains in their village. Besides, it is not right to make the one who sincerely does obeisance to you suffer misfortune at their hands, so that no one should pass through him for any matter whatsoever […] […] […] [verso] To my God-protected lord † and brother † Senouthios, most illustrious chartularius and anystes † Ioannakis † †

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.
