κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ Ἡρακλείῳ Ἀπολλώνιος. ἀκούσας καὶ σὲ ἐν ταῖς αὐταῖς ἀνάγκαις γεγενῆσθαι, οὐχ ἡδέως ἔσχον, πλὴν ὅσον ἐγχωρεῖ θεοῦ συνεργοῦντος φιλονικήσομεν καὶ αὐτὰ δανείζεσθαιδανήζεσθαι. ὅσα δὲ πέπονθεν ὁ ἀδελφός μου Ἥρων ἐν τῇ Λύκων γενό μενος, ἵνʼ ἐπιλάβηται Κτίστου τοῦ μυροπώλου, οὐδὲ διηγήσασθαι δύ ναμαι. καὶ γὰρ ὡς ἐν ἐχθρῶν πόλει οὕτως αὐτῷ πάντες προσηνέ χθησαν ὡς καὶ ὀλίγου δεῖν αὐτὸν ἀπόλλυσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν πολιτῶν σου. ἀλλὰ ὡς σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐπιστάτης αὐτῶν, τὸ παρὸν ὑπερεθέμην, δυνάμε νος τὴν παρὰ τῶν μειζόνων ἐκδικίανἐκδικείαν αἰτήσασθαι. ἵνα δὲ καὶ ταῦτα περιαιρεθῇ καὶ τὸ πρόσταγμα πέρας λαβεῖν δύνηται, περὶ πάν τός σοι γενέσθω, κύριέ μου ἄδελφε, πανταχόθεν τὸν Κτίστην τοῦτον ἀποστεῖλαι διὰ δημοσίου, πρότερον ἐγγύας παρασχόντα παρὰ σοί, ἵνα μὴ πάλιν δυνηθῇ διαφυγεῖν. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι, κύριέ μου ἄδελφε τῷ παντὶ χρόνῳ ἐρρωμένον vestiges κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ Ἡρακλείῳ Ἀπολλώνιος.

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.
