Description

Record of the sale of a donkey from Egypt, written on papyrus. Sale is by Aurelius Psenpnouthes, son of Horos and Tapsois from Kellis in the Great Oasis to someone whose name begins with "Aurelius" from the same village. The male donkey changes hands in a city for 21,500 talents. Since Aurelius Psenpnouthes is illiterate, the subscription is written for him by Aurelius Apollos, son of Apollos, from the same village. Dated in the post-consulate of Flavius Antonius and Flavius Syagrius (383 A.D.)

About this record's data

From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
