A short order from Dioskoros to the eirenarch (local police officer) of the village of Taampemou, instructing him to produce three men, Anoubas, Dionysios and Ammonios, or their families, in connection with money they owe. It dates to the 4th century AD and comes from the Oxyrhynchite nome.
In English machine translation
From Dioskoros
to the eirenarch of Taampemou. (Send up) Anoubas and Dionysios and Ammonios, or their families, being brought down (?) for the money which they owe […]
[…] and […] one. I have signed.
Such orders usually omit the imperative verb ('send up'), which is understood; the end of the text is too damaged to read with certainty. An eirenarch was a village official responsible for keeping order and arresting people summoned by higher authorities.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Order to an Irenarch). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
