Description

An account; the material is not specified, but it was reckoned by loads and sheaves, twenty of the latter being equal to one of the former. As it seems to have been used as fuel for baths and as binding mud bricks, as well as forming food for donkeys and sheep, it was probably straw rather than hay.
