The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →
A small fragment of an ostracon account recording deliveries, apparently of hay, made through a man named Psais son of Pekysis and others. It comes from Trimithis in the Great Oasis.
The word translated "bundles" (desmai) refers to bundles of hay or fodder, which is why the record identifies this as an account of hay.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Account of hay). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
