Fragmentary Coptic deed of sale from Djeme (western Thebes), in which a woman named Teulita sells her share of a property, probably a house, acknowledging full payment and guaranteeing the buyer against claims by relatives, with a penalty in gold solidi. Several witnesses sign at the end.

In English machine translation

[… lines lost …] […] [today], which is the 10th of Phamenoth (?) […] […] (?) Lashane of Djeme (Jeme). I […] […]oute, inhabitant of the Kastron […] Greetings. I acknowledge […] the son of Sauoute (?) […] [to sell] to you my share in the […]oute, so that you may be master […] every [lordship] over it, to give it in writing […] since you have paid me its price in full […] no person shall be able […] […] neither daughter nor son (?) […] nor sister. Whoever shall come forth […] two holokottinoi, 2 nomismata, and he shall come in and […] I, Teulita, the daughter […] I agree to the sale as aforesaid. […] Jeremias, I am witness. […] I am witness. † […]ios son of Zebedaios, I am witness. […] son of Psate […], I am witness.

The property sold is not preserved; the identification as a house is tentative. A holokottinos is a gold solidus.
