Modern Title Contract of loan of money
Summary Nonna had borrowed an unknown amount of money from Maria and had left a pair of earrings with her as security. She now sells them to Maria for 8 solidi in cash. The relationship between the original debt and the 8 solidi is not clear; Bell assumed that the purchase price for the earrings included, in addition to the 8 solidi, the original amount of the debt. Seven years after this transaction, Maria must have made over to her father Paulos two pendants from one of the earrings which he gave as part of a pledge for a loan of five solidi (P. Lond. V 1719.8, 15). The bottom of our document is missing but there is no reference in the preserved part to payment of the debt. (Farber/Porten)
