Copy of a bank payment recording a deposit by Soucharion TM 10067Karanis (Arsinoites)69 - 79

Copy of a bank payment order through the bank of Phanias at Karanis, dated to the reign of Vespasian, recording a deposit of silver drachmas made by a woman, Soucharion, acting with a male kinsman as guardian, to a man described as a Persian of the descent. The recipient undertakes to repay it whenever she asks, without delay.

In English machine translation

"Persian of the descent" is a legal status label that by this period mainly marked a person as liable to strict enforcement of debts. The woman's name is largely restored from its second occurrence; the amount of the deposit is lost.
