χαίρειν. ἔγραψά σοι ὡς ἔγραψας μοι. γίνωσκε δὲ ὅτι ἐξ ἐμοῦ ἡ ἀπογραφή σου ἐγένετο, προτρέψας αὐ τὸν οὕτως ἀπογράψασθαι ἵναἱν καὶ ἐγὼκἀγὼ δυ νηθῶ τὰ ἴσα ἀπογράψασθαι, ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸ πρὸς μέρος χωρίον σου ἐν αὐτῷ τῷ Αἰγύπτῳ. πᾶν ποίησον ἐπεὶἐπὶ ἔρχομαιἔρχομε εἰς Αἴγυπτον, καὶ ἐὰνκἂν μοσθίον οἴνου μοι φο ρέτρισονφολέτρισον, καὶ γράψον μοι τί δῶ αὐτῷ φόρετρονφόλετρον. ἀλλὰ μὴ ἀμελήσῃς. ἔρρω σό μοι, κύριε.

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.
