Ζωίλος Ἀλεξάνδρωι χαίρειν. καλῶς ἂν ἔχοι εἰ ἔρρωσαι· ὑγιαίνομεν δὲ καὶ αὐτοί. ἐκομισάμην τὰς ἐπιστολὰς καὶ οὐκ ἀμελῶ περὶ ὧν ἂν ἡμῖν γράφηις. σὺ δὲ καλῶς ποιήσεις ἐκπονήσας ἵνα ἡμῖν γίνηται ἅ σοι ἐνετειλάμεθα κατὰ τὸ ὑπόμνημα, τούτου δὲ γενομένου ἐπίστασο ὅτι ὀφειλήσω σοι χάριν ἱκανήν. προσάγαγε οὖν τῶι Ἀπολλωνίωι καὶ ἄλλους τῶν σῶν φίλων καὶ πρόσθες τούτοις τι, ἐὰν καὶ Ἀντι όχωι δοκῆι. μὴ οὖν ῥαθυμήσηις. λαβὲ δὲ καὶ παρὰ Ζήνωνος τοῦ Ἀπολλωνίου ὑποζύ γιον, ὃ ἄν σοι δῶι, καὶ ἐξάγαγέ μοι, καὶ μὴ ὀλιγώρως· οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι δυνήσει σὺ οἰκονομήσα σθαι τὴν ἐξαγωγήν. ἔρρωσο. ἔτους κη, Δύστρου κβ. ἱππάρχηι, τῶι Νικάνορος υἱῶι. Ἀλεξάνδρωι.

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
  • 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 — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
