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 what appears to be an official communication, preserving only the beginnings of ten lines with scattered words about land, accounting, grain and profit. It dates to the 2nd or 3rd century AD.
Only line beginnings survive, so the translation gives isolated words; 'edaphe' refers to plots of land, and 'logismos' to an account or reckoning.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Frammento di comunicazione ufficiale). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
