Φλαουίῳ Ἀπίωνι τῷ ἐλλογιμωτάτῳ ἐκδίκῳ τῆς Ὀξυρυγχιτῶν παρὰ Ἰωσὴφ ἀπὸ τῆς αὐτῆς. Ἀναστάσιος ὁ δημόσιος ζυγοστάτης περιὼν ὑπεδέξατο παρʼ ἐμοῦ φανερὸν χρυσίον ἐπὶ τῷ ται, καὶ τοῦτο παραδοὺς ἐδεξά μην τὴν αὐτοῦ σφραγῖδα, καὶ μεθʼ ὁλκῆς ταύτην λύσας ὁ προειρημένος ζυγοστάτης παραπέφανκεν κεράτια πεντήκοντα δύο , ὡς καὶ μαρτυροῦσιν ὁ τούτου υἱὸς καὶ μίσθιος περὶ τούτου. καὶ ὑπομνησ θεὶς παρʼ ἐμοῦ ἐπηγγείλατο ταῦτα καταβαλεῖν, καὶ ἄφνω τέλει τοῦ βίου ἐχρήσατο πρὸ τῆς τούτων καταβολῆς. τοῦτον οὖν ἐπιδιδοὺς τὸν λίβελλον τῇ σῇ παιδεύσει παρακαλῶ ἀνάγκην ἐκδεχόμενος, λέγω δὴ τὸν τούτου υἱὸν κελεῦσαι ἐν τῷ ἀσφαλεῖ καταστῆσαι μέχρι ἂν τὴν ἀποκατάστασιν μοι θέλῃ ποιήσασθαι τῶν αὐτῶν πεντήκοντα δύο κερατίων, λογιώτατε ἔκδικε κύριε. Αὐρήλιος Ἰωσὴφ ἐπιδέδωκα. μετὰ τὴν ὑπατείαν Φλαουίου εη

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.
