First of all, I, the most humble, write greeting my beloved brothers, who love God and love mankind. I greet you greatly with all my heart and all my soul. And after this, again I make obeisance to your holiness. Give it to the most pious [Apa] Isaak the deacon and Seth his brother, from Frange, the most humble, of the mountain of Jeme.
Farewell in the Lord.
I greet my mother Aunak (?) and her children in the Lord.

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.
