Fragment mentioning Herakl- and officials TM 3123Hermopolites, ÄgyptenMitte II v.Chr.

A small fragment of a Greek papyrus from the Hermopolite nome, dating to the mid-2nd century BC. Only the beginnings of lines survive, mentioning a name beginning Herakl-, officials or affairs, and possibly judges; the nature of the document cannot be determined.

In English machine translation

[recto] Herakl[…] the officials (?) […] […]etor (?) […] […] judges (?) […] […] […] […] […] […] members (?) from […] […] had been assigned (?) […] and nothing […] […] [… lines lost …] [verso] […] hundred (?) […]

Only line beginnings survive, so the translated words are tentative; 'pragm[…]' could refer to officials (pragmateuomenoi) or to affairs, and the verso word may relate to 'hundred' or a centurion-type title.

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