(Translation: P. L. Bat. 25.50) ...and (free) from guarding public dikes and from everything else whatsoever and from all state taxes and compulsory cultivation up to and including the past nineteenth year, because from the current twentieth year the products of the property belong to you the buyer at whose charge lie also the payments of every kind from the same twentieth year. The sale, written in x copies, is valid, and I shall also make it for you through a public office without receiving anything else from you, though the taxes and the scribal fees are at your charge. To the question posed by you whether this is done rightly and fairly I have given my consent.

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.
