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 →

The end of a legal agreement from Byzantine Egypt, preserving only the witness subscriptions. The surviving witnesses include a man connected with the church of St Christophoros, a secretary named Viktor, and Joseph, a deacon of the church of St Joseph.

In English machine translation

[… 10 lines lost …] […] of the holy Christophoros, son of the late Philoxenos, I bear witness to this agreement. † Viktor, secretary, son of the late Georgios, I bear witness to this agreement. † Joseph, deacon of the holy Joseph […] […] I bear witness to this agreement.

The body of the document is lost, so the nature of the agreement (homologia) is unknown. "Of the holy Christophoros" and "of the holy Joseph" probably refer to churches or shrines the witnesses served.
