End of a contract with subscription by a woman with her guardian TM 29059Arsinoites oder Herakleopolites1. Hälfte III
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 →
Fragment from the end of a contract, preserving the closing validity clause, the formal question-and-answer acknowledgement, and the start of a subscription by a woman acting with her guardian, apparently acknowledging receipt. A woman named Nemesiaina appears. It dates from the first half of the 3rd century AD, from the Arsinoite or Herakleopolite nome.

The clause on the completion of the instrument (chrematismos) and the reference to public risk are largely restored. The woman acts with a kyrios, a male guardian legally required for women's transactions.
