I, Frange,
the sinner who lives on the Mountain
of Jeme, am writing,
greeting his beloved lord brother,
the good Ananias, and his wife
and his children. Farewell in the Lord.
My beloved brother,

be so kind, as soon as the tablet (?)
comes into your hands,
leave everything (else) and find the basket (?) and the mmous (?)
of the belt (?)
and a bese (?),
a little, and come.
These, you know them.

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.
