[recto]
Eudaimon to Apollos, [my lord] and brother, greetings.
I have already written to you and kept on [writing about] the guards of the mine (or quarry), about the dykes, so that he may secure them; and I am doing something superfluous in writing, for you are capable on your own. About the bricks I am writing to you so that, if it is advantageous for them to be moved, you move them and seal them. Take care also to write to me through whomever you find. Have a little tunic woven for Chryseros.
[…] follow (?) […]
[…] of the strategos (?) […] we are expecting. If then you wish […] you should send word what we should do. [I greet] my mother and those in the house. [The] little key I ordered […] to Chairemon into the middle […] when they had gone out […] inside, earth (?). If then it happened […] but do not neglect [to do this].
[I pray] for your health, my brother.
[verso]
[…] Deliver to Apollos [from Euda]imon.

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.
