Διονύσιος Ἡρακλείδῃ
τῷ ἀδελφῷ πλεῖστα
χαίρειν· ἀναγκαῖον ἡγησάμην διὰ ἐπιστολῆς
σε ἀσπάζεσθαι. οἶδας,
ἄδελφε, ὅτι οὐδὲν ἔνι
ὧδε ἵνα σοι πέμψω. εἰ δέ
τινος ἄλλου χρῄζεις, πέμψον μοι καὶ ἀποστελῶ
σοι ἢ φακὸν ἢ χαλκόν.
ἀσπάζου διὰ ἐμοῦ […]
Ἡροῦν, καὶ ἄν τι αὐτῇ
παρέξῃ, ἕνεκα μοῦ
14.αὐτῇ πάρεχε.
ἔρρωσο.
ἀσπάζου Χαιρήμονα.Translations (1)
Dionysios to Herakleides his brother, very many greetings. I thought it necessary to greet you by letter. You know, brother, that there is nothing here that I could send you. But if you need anything else, send to me and I will dispatch to you either lentils or copper money.
Greet for me […] Herous, and if you provide her with anything, provide it to her for my sake.
Farewell.
Greet Chairemon.

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.
