EN AI · machine translation from the DDbDP edition (Claude Opus 5.5)
Patrempabathes to Apollinaris his brother, many greetings. And I make your obeisance before the lady Isis. Now, brother, do not blame me that I did not send you vegetables. If there are any, I will send them to you. Now, as to the things I told you about, do them and write back to me so that I may come to you. Collect from Nemesion the familiaris 16 obols. If he receives them (?), write back to me. Do not neglect to do these things for me. Write to me about your health. I pray for your health.

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.
