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 short payment order from Martyrios to the wine-merchant Paulos, instructing him to pay 630 myriads of silver (denarii) to Apa Horas. It is dated Choiak 3 of a second indiction year, in the 5th or 6th century AD.
The other record titles this an order for payment of corn, but the text orders a payment in money. A myriad is a unit of 10,000 denarii, reflecting late Roman inflation.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Order for Payment of Corn). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
