Protagonist: Esminis son of Petenephotes (Go to TM People)

Description: Archive of mainly burial receipts issued to Esminis son of Petenephotes (263-250 BC) and salt tax and price-of-oil receipts issued to “Tabis, wife of Esminis” (254-247 BC), to be distinguished from the Tabis wife of Cherebes, a colleague or family member of Esminis. The protagonist, a mortuary priest, is undoubtedly the wife of Tabis, as suggested by Muhs, since they are named together in TM 51772 and their ostraca share the same inv.nos. and acquisition history (they originate from the 1834 Wilkinson donation).

Studies: O. Chicago Muhs, 2005, p. 116-7 (taxpayer 18) and p. 120 (taxpayer 23); O. Taxes 2, 2011, p. 269
