Αὖγχις Ζήνωνι χαίρειν. λαμβάνουσα ζῦτον ἐκ τοῦ μεγάλου ζυτοπω λίου διατίθημι τὴν ἡμέραν δραχμῶν δ, καὶ εὐτακτῶ. Δημήτριος δέ μου ὁ ἀμ πελουργὸς ἀπατήσας τὴν θυγατέρα ἐξαγα γὼν κρύπτει, φάμενος συνοικήσειν αὐτῆι ἄνευ ἐμοῦ. αὕτη δὲ συνένεμε τὸ ἐργαστήριον καὶ ἐμὲ ἔτρεφεν πρεσβυτέραν οὖ σαν. νῦν οὖν ζημίαν ποι ῶ ταύτης ἐξελθούσης, καὶ αὐτὴ δὲ τὰ δέοντα οὐκ ἔ χω. ἔχει δὲ καὶ γυναῖκα ἑτέραν καὶ παιδία ὧδε ὥστε οὐ δύναται συνοικεῖν ἧιην ἠπάτησεν. ἀξιῶ οὖν βο ηθῆσαί μοι διὰ τὸ γῆρας καὶ παραδοῦναί μοι αὐτήν. ἔρρωσο. ἔτους λβ, μεχείρ.

[Translation from Rowlandson, Women and Society 1998] Haynchis to Zenon, greetings. I take beer from the large beer-shop and dispose of 4 drachmas worth daily, and pay regularly. But Demetrios the vine-dresser, having deceived my daughter, has carried her off and conceals her saying he will set up house with her without my consent. And she helped me to manage the shop and supported me in my old age. Now therefore since she has gone away I am making a loss and I do not have the necessities of life. And he has another wife and children here, so that he cannot consort with the woman he has deceived. I therefore ask you to help me on account of my old age, and return her to me.

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.
