Pakysis son of Tesenouphis has paid, through Dioskoros and associates, collectors of money taxes of the village of Soknopaiou Nesos, on behalf of Horos son of Panephremmis, his mother being Thenapynchis, for the dike tax of the fifth year, six drachmas 4 obols, total 6 drachmas 4 obols, and the additional charges and receipt fees. Year 7 of Antoninus and Verus the lords Augusti, Hathyr 13. Anchophis son of Panephremmis, son of Anchophis the elder, his mother being Thases, has paid, through Dioskoros and associates, collectors of money taxes of the village of Soknopaiou Nesos, for the dike tax of the fifth year, six drachmas 4 obols, total 6 drachmas 4 obols, and the additional charges and receipt fees.

The dike tax (chomatikon) funded maintenance of irrigation embankments; it is paid here in arrears for year 5 of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. One record also lists a granary receipt from Herakleia under the same number, which does not match this text.
