Papyrus Oxyrhynchus 581 (P. Oxy. 581 or P. Oxy. III 581) is a papyrus fragment written in Ancient Greek, apparently recording the sale of a slave girl. Dating from 29 August 99 AD, P. Oxy. 581 was discovered, alongside hundreds of other papyri, by Bernard Pyne Grenfell and Arthur Surridge Hunt while excavating an ancient landfill at Oxyrhynchus in modern Egypt. The document's contents were published by the Egypt Exploration Fund in 1898, which also secured its donation to University College, Dundee, later the University of Dundee, in 1903 – where it still resides. Measuring 6.3 x 14.7 cm and consisting of 17 lines of text, the artifact represents the conclusion of a longer record, although the beginning of the papyrus was lost before it was found. P. Oxy. 581 has received a modest amount o

  • El Papiro Oxirrinco 581 (P. Oxy. 581 o P. Oxy. III 581) es un fragmento de papiro escrito en griego antiguo, que aparentemente registra la venta de una esclava. Fechado el 29 de agosto del año 99, P.

El contenido del documento fue publicado por el Egypt Exploration Society en 1898, que también aseguró su donación al University College, Dundee, más tarde la Universidad de Dundee, en 1903 - donde todavía se encuentra. El artefacto, que mide 6,3 x 14,7 cm y consta de 17 líneas de texto, representa la conclusión de un documento más largo, aunque el principio del papiro se perdió antes de ser encontrado. P. Oxy. 581 ha recibido una modesta atención académica, la más reciente y completa en una traducción de 2009 del clasicista Amin Benaissa del Lady Margaret Hall, un college de la Universidad de Oxford. El fragmento probablemente documenta el registro de una venta de esclavos en el agoranomeion de Oxirrinco, una institución cívica romana que se ocupaba del registro y gestión de documentos y la supervisión de los impuestos. P. Oxy. 581 menciona a cuatro individuos; la propia esclava, probablemente una niña de ocho años; el comprador no identificado, para quien se está registrando la transacción; Demas, hermano del comprador así como el anterior propietario de la esclava y Cecilio Clemente, un notario no especificado que también está relacionado con otros cuatro Papiros de Oxirrinco que datan de los años 86/100. Una «omisión inadvertida de escribano»,​ en la que el valor declarado de 3.000 dracmas de bronce, moneda en gran parte obsoleta, no se convirtió en su equivalente en plata, se considera un error inusual y ha servido para distinguir el documento.

Oxy. 581 has received a modest amount of scholarly attention, most recently and completely in a 2009 translation by classicist Amin Benaissa of Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford. The fragment probably documents the registration of a slaving sale with Oxyrhynchus' , a Roman civic institution involved with record-keeping and the supervision of taxation. P. Oxy. 581 mentions four individuals; the slave herself, likely an eight year-old female; the unnamed purchaser, for whom the transaction is being registered; Demas, brother of the purchaser as well as the slave's previous owner and Caecilius Clemens, an unspecified notary also connected to four other Oxyrhynchus Papyri dating from 86 AD–c.100 AD. An "inadvertent scribal omission", whereby the stated value of 3,000 bronze drachmas, a largely obsolete currency, was not converted into its equivalent worth in silver, is regarded as an unusual mistake and has served to distinguish the record.
