Translations (1)

EN scholarly
Antigonus to Marion his brother, greetings. I send you, through Calpurnius (?) our co-citizen, the cibariator, Rutilius' contract (cheirograph). I ask you, brother, as I asked you when you (were) in Egypt, to demand from him what he owes you. I know that you are fierce, so he will not ridicule you with words. He suspects that the note is yours. You will say, as is your right, how old the contract (cheirograph) is and that he has not paid up. Farewell.

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.
