Σαραπάμμων Θα ήσει τῇ ἀδελφῇ χαίρειν. διεπεμψάμην σοι οἴνου κεράμιον διὰ Πατᾶ τινος ναυτι κοῦ, ὅπερ εἰ ἐκομί σω δήλωσόν μοι. εἰ γὰρ οὐκ ἠνέχθη σοι, γενοῦ εἰς τὸ γνα φεῖον Ἡρακλείου καὶ μάθε εἰ παρετέ θη αὐτοῖς καὶ δέξαι αὐτό. γενοῦ δὲ καὶ εἰς τὸ ἐργαστήριον καὶ μάθε εἰ ἐν ἀσφα λεῖ ἐστι καὶ εἰ ἔρρω ται ἡ ἐν τῷ αἰθρίῳ κειμένη μεγάλη θυΐα, καὶ πῶς ἔχεις γράψον μοι. ἔμελ λον γὰρ ἀνελθεῖν, καὶ ὑπερεθέμην ἔστʼ ἂν μάθω πότερον ἐρά ϊσαςἐρᾷ Ἰσᾶς ἢ οὐ, καὶ εἰ χρεία ἐστὶ τοῦ με ἀνελθεῖν. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι. Χοίακ κδ. εἰς τὸ Ἰσεῖον ὥστε Θαήσει παρὰ Σαραπάμμωνος.Translations (1)
Sarapammon to his sister Thaësis, greeting. I sent you a jar of wine by one Patas, a sailor. Let me know whether you received it; for if it was not brought to you, go to the fuller’s shop at Heracleum (?) and find out whether it was delivered to them and get it. Go also to the workshop and find out whether the large mortar placed in the portico is safe and sound, and write to me how you are; for I intended to return home, but I delayed until I might learn whether you were feeling better or not, and if there is need for me to return. I pray for your health. Choiak 24. (Addressed) To Iseum for Thaësis from Sarapammon.

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.
