Lease of Cows
Description
Originally thought to be a lease of slaves, C.W. Keyes (BL 3.152) showed that the document was actually a lease of cows, with rent to be paid in wheat instead of money. If the cows die during the term of the lease the loss is to be made good by the lessee. Any offspring produced in that time are also to belong to the lessee. The lease is addressed to the Aurelii Petirius and Lycarion through their agent Apollinarios from Aurelius from the village of Ibion

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
- 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 — APIS (Advanced Papyrological Information System) — papyri.
