Μακρεῖνος Ἀντωνᾶτι
τῷ ἀδελφῷ χαίρειν. ὑπὲρ ὧν
σε ἠρώτησα, ἄδελφε,
μὴ ἀμελήσῃς. ἐὰν δέ τι
ἦσθα ἐξ αὐτῶν πεποιηκώς, δώσεις τῷ ταβελλαρίῳ. ὑπὲρ δὲ τοῦ χαλινοῦ μὴ ἀμελήσῃς.
τὸ δὲ βύνι πέμψω σοι
ἐὰν εὕρω ᾧτινι ἐπιθῶ.Translations (1)
Macrinus to Antonas his brother, greetings. Concerning the things I asked you about, brother, do not neglect them. If you have done any of them, give it to the letter-carrier. And concerning the bridle, do not neglect it.
As for the malt, I will send it to you if I find someone to load it on.

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.
