φύλαξον τοὺς ἀμ πελῶνας, οὓς εἶπεν ἡμῖνἡμεῖν τος εἶναι ἐν ἑνὶ ατι· ἄλλο δʼ ἔτι ἐδείκνυεν ὁ φυ λακίτης φάμενος ἡμῖνἡμεῖν αι καὶ κελεύων καταστῆσαι. ἡμεῖς δὲ οὐδʼ ὧδε ἐκποιοῦμεν, ἀλλʼ ἄλλων προσδεόμε θα. σὺ οὖν, εἰ μὲν δυνα τόν ἐστιν, ἀποστῆναι ι· οὐδενὸς γὰρ ἄξι όν ἐστιν· εἰ δὲ μὴ, ἀπόσ τειλον φύλακας. ἠξιοῦ μεν δὲ τὸν φυλακίτηνφυλακειτων ἡμῖνἡμεῖν ἄλλους δοῦναι, ὁ δὲ οὐκ ἔφη ἐπι τήδειον εἶναι Αἰγυπτίους δοῦναι νεανίσκους· οὗτοι ς δὲ παρʼ ἡμῖν οὐ μὴ βούλωνται φυλάσσειν. ἔρρωσο.

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.
