Fragment of a document with imperial titulature TM 17797Panopolis217 - 218

The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 4 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →

A small fragment of a Greek document from Panopolis, dated 217-218 AD, preserving only scattered words: the personal name Aurelius, part of an imperial titulature, a name beginning Bes-, and a deleted reference to Opellius. Its content cannot be recovered.

In English machine translation

[… 6 lines lost …] […] in full (?) […] […] Aurelius […] […] Pius Felix Augustus […] […] of Bes […] […] […] […] each (?) […] […] […] […] ⟦Opellius⟧ […] […] Mo[…] […] […] Aurelius […]

The deleted name Opellius points to the emperor Macrinus (Marcus Opellius Macrinus, 217-218), whose name was erased after his fall; this explains the date. The 'in full' reading may reflect a payment or receipt formula, but this is uncertain.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
