Δημᾶς Ἀγαθῷ Δαίμωνι τῷ ἀδελφῷ χαίρειν. πρὸ τῶν ὅλων ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι. ὡς καὶ κατʼ ὄψιν σε ᾔτησα, καὶ νῦν σοι γράφω ἐπισχεῖν τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς ἐν ἀ γρῷ ἵνα μὴ ἀμεληθῇ καὶ ἐάνκἄν τι ᾖἠν ἀμε λούμενον, δήλωσον τῷ καθηγη τῇ. ἔγραψα δὲ αὐτῷ ἵνα τὸ τῶν κενωμάτων τὸ πρὸς Ἡρακλῆν ἀπαρ τίσῃ μετὰ σῆς γνώμης. ἀσφα λισάσθω οὖν αὐτὸν ὡς ὑπέσχου μοι, ἵνα ἐλθὼν εἰς τὸν καιρὸν ἀποκριθῇ ἡμῖνἡμεῖν καὶ μὴ χείρων τοῦ πέρυσι γένηται. ἄσπασαι Χελεραν καὶ ἔντειλαι αὐ τῷ περὶ τῶν χλωρῶν τοῦ ἕλους. ἄσ πασαι Δημήτριον τὸν φύλακα καὶ τὰ παιδία αὐτοῦ. ἔρρωσο ἄδελφε. Ἀγαθῷ Δαίμωνι φίλωι. ἀπὸ Δημᾶ φίλου.

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.
