[… lines lost …] […] … […] 1/2 […] of Vespasian (?) […] aged 57, without distinguishing marks; Dioskoros, slave of Laberia daughter of Pasion, for the half share, from the Hellenion quarter, of whom the remaining half share was declared to belong to Horaiane her sister, at present a weaver, who is also counted here, my own (?), aged 29, without distinguishing marks; Dioskoros, another slave of the same, likewise for the half share, of whom the remaining half share was declared to belong to Horaiane her sister, not registered among those born since, who is also counted here, in year 1, aged 1, without distinguishing marks; Pasion, son of Dioskoros, slave of Laberia, his mother being Alexous daughter of Hermas, not registered among those born since, in year 1, aged 1, without distinguishing marks. And after other entries: Laberia daughter of Pasion son of Pasion, her mother being Alexandra daughter of Pasion […], from the Hellenion quarter, wife of Theon, aged 32; Isidora, slave of her and of her sister Horaiane jointly in equal shares, aged 49; Dioskorous also called Sarapous, slave of the same, aged 23; Alexous daughter of Hermas son of Hermas, her mother being Tasoucharion daughter of Syros, wife of Dioskoros the slave, aged 26; Alexous, their daughter, aged 8; Taareotis, another daughter of the same, aged 6.

The phrase "not registered among those born since" (epigegenemenoi) refers to children born after the previous census who had not yet been entered in the registers. Slaves are listed as half shares because they were owned jointly by two sisters.
