Ἱεροκλῆς Ζήνωνι χαίρειν. εἰ ἔρρωσαι καὶ ἐν τοῖς λοιποῖς ἀπαλλάσσεις κατὰ νοῦν, εὖ ἂν ἔχοι· ὑγιαίνω δὲ καὶ αὐτὸς καὶ Ἐφάρμοστος. ἀπέσταλκεν Καλλικῶν παῖδαπαιδς εἰς Ἡρακλέους πόλιν ὥστε καταγαγεῖν τι αὐτῶι, ὧι ὄνομα Ὀνήσιμος. ἠξίωσεν οὖν καὶ Πτολεμαῖος παρελθεῖν αὐτὸν πρὸς σέ. σὺ οὖν καλῶς ἂν ποιήσαις πριάμενος ἱμάτιον καὶ ἄλλο θερινὸν χιτῶνα Πτολεμαίωι καὶ δοὺς τῶι παιδὶ ὅπως ἂν καταγάγηι, ἐπειδὴ σὺ μακρότερονμακροτεραν ποιεῖς, Πτολεμαίωι δὲ τυγχάνει χρέα οὖσα· ἀκούων γὰρ ἄνω εὔωνα εἶναι οὐκ ἠγόρακεν ἐνθένδε. ἔρρωσο. ἔτους λ, Πανήμου ιβ, Ἐπεὶφ β.

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.
