Closing date and subscription of a return submitted by Aurelius Heliammon TM 21078unbekannt24. Aug. 298

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 →

The surviving end of a document, probably a return or declaration, submitted by Aurelius Heliammon, dated 24 August 298 under the Tetrarchy. Aurelius Thonis wrote the subscription for him because he was illiterate.

In English machine translation

[… lines lost …] Year 14 and year 13 of our lords Diocletian and Maximian Augusti and year 6 of our lords Constantius and Maximian, the most illustrious Caesars, Augusti, Epagomenal day 1. I, Aurelius Heliammon […], have submitted (this). I, Aurelius Thonis, wrote on his behalf, as he does not know letters.

Only the dating clause and subscription survive, so the identification as a return rests on the formula 'I have submitted'. The Caesars Constantius and Galerius (here called Maximian) are oddly also styled Augusti in the text.

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