Delivery of grain from granary to harbor
Description
Delivery of 50 sacks (of wheat) is credited to the account of an unnamed village. The work of transporting this amount was spread over a period of almost exactly 6 1/2 months, from Mesore to Mecheir 15, i.e. July 25 - Feb. 9. If the ostracon records the total contribution of the village, it was a very small locality indeed. It is more likely that this short text is a summary memorandum of deliveries made by a single landholder also unamed. Cf. O.Mich. 9926, which covers deliveries made by Doulos, son of Aionis, over a period of more than three months.
