κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ Ἀπολλωνίῳ Βησαρίων χαίρειν. ὁ συνκάθεδρος τοῦ ἀπαλλαγέντος ἐπιστρατήγου ἅμα τινὶ ὀφφικιαλίῳ ἐλθὼν πρὸς ἡμᾶς ἔφησεν κτήνη τοῦ πρίγκιπος τοῦ ἡγεμόνος ἐνταῦθα εἶναι ἀριθμῷ δεκαπέντε οἷς χρῄ ζειν χόρτου μανδακίων πέντε καὶ γράμματα περὶ τοῦ παρασχεθῆναι χόρτον κεκομίσθαι Φιλιάρχῳ τῷ στρατηγῷ παρόντι γραφέντα ὑπὸ τοῦ πρίγκιπος. ἵνʼ οὖν προνοήσῃ τοῦ ἀποσταλῆναι ἐνταῦθα χόρτον γρά φω σοι. ἀλλὰ εὐθέως ποίησον ἀποσταλῆναι ἵνα μὴ διὰ τὴν αἰ τίαν ταύτην δόξωσίν τι μέμφεσθαι. ἔρρωσό μοι.

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.
