End of a contract with validity clause TM 33579unbekanntIV

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 from the closing part of a contract, preserving phrases from the standard validity clause, in which a party declares the document valid and secure and says it was drawn up for security. It dates to the 4th century AD and belongs to the Nepheros archive.

In English machine translation

[…] […] … […] […] valid and secure […] […] for security I have made […] […] security the […] […]. In the time of (?) […] […] … […] […]

The phrases 'valid and secure' and 'for security' are standard formulas found near the end of Greek contracts; the nature of the agreement itself is lost.

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