Description

This side contains an account prepared by the supervisor of an oil-press, perhaps as part of the routine business of an estate. He acknowledges receipt of safflower, doubtless in the form of seed, to be converted to oil in conformity with a standard conversion rate, 9 artabas = 1 metretes. He then specifies the quantities of oil returned in five shipments by donkey-convoy.
