Fragment of a contract of cession from Philadelphia in the Arsinoite nome, dated to the 2nd or 3rd century AD. Someone connected with a man named Sabinus transfers a one-third undivided share of land, with its appurtenances, bounded on the south by Antas and on the west by Soteris, granting the recipient full ownership and the right to its produce.

In English machine translation

[…] of Sabinus, of those from the village of Philadelphia […] […] … […] […] … […] […] the handwritten contract (?) which belonged to me […] … […] […] one third share, held in common and undivided […] […] or however many there may be, and of all the appurtenances […] […] whose neighbours are: on the south, Antas […] […] plots (?), on the west, Soteris […] […] … […] […] … […] […] to possess and to be owner of the aforementioned […] […] the yield accruing, to carry off […] […] to cede and to manage … […] […] … […] [… lost …]

This is a duplicate copy of the same contract. Much of the wording is restored from standard cession formulas, so the details of the property are uncertain.

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