κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ Ἡρᾷ Ἀμμώνιος ἑκατόνταρχος χαίρειν. Φ ὁ ἀποδιδούς σοι τὰ παρʼ ἐμοῦ γράμματα γεωργός μου τυγχάνει. φησὶν προβεβλῆσθαι εἰς λειτουργίαν τῆς κώμης Δωσιθέου, τουτέστιν εἰς ἀπαίτησιν στιχαρίων καὶ παλλίων, μηδέπω δὲ ἐγκεχειρίσθαι τὴν ἀπαί τησιν. σπούδασον τοίνυν, ἄδελφε, τοῦτον ῥύσασθαι τοῦ λειτουργήματος, ἔτι δὲ καὶ δεξιῶς αὐτῷ προσσχεῖνπροσχεῖν τὰ μεγάλα μοι χαριζόμενος ἐν τούτῳ, ἀλλὰ μὴν καὶ τοῦ λοιποῦ μὴ ἐπι τρέπειν τοῖς ἀπὸ τῆς κώμης ἀδικῆσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἄλλοις μηδʼ εἰς ἑτέρας λειτουργίας προ βάλλεσθαι, ἀλλʼ ἵνα μοι μαρτυρήσῃ τὰ ὑπὸ τῆς ἀγαθῆς σου προαιρέσεως αὐτῷ ὑπαρχθέντα. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι πολλοῖς χρόνοις, κύριε ἄδελφεμελφε. κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ Ἡρᾷ Ἀμμώνιος πρίγκιψ.

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.
