κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ
Φιλίππωι Σερῆνος χαίρειν.
τὸ μάριον ἐλαίου ὅπερ
ἠνέχθη ἀπὸ Ψέλθεως
πέμψον μοι ἄρτι καὶ λάβε παρὰ Νίνου τὰς ἄλλας τέσσαρας χοέας,
ἀλλὰ μὴ ἀμελήσῃς. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι
πολλοῖς χρόνοις.Translations (1)
To my lord brother Philippos, Serenos, greetings.
The marion of oil which was brought from Pselthis, send it to me now, and receive from Ninos the other four choes; but do not neglect this. I pray for your health for many years.

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.
