In English machine translation
Herakleides to Herais, greeting. I have received from you the rents of the thirteenth year of Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus Imperator, 24 1/3 artabas of wheat.
Year fourteen of Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus Imperator, ⟦Neos⟧ Sebastos 28.
Neos Sebastos, struck out here by the scribe, and Sebastos are names of a month (Hathyr and Thoth respectively), so Sebastos 28 corresponds to 25 September. Ekphoria are rents paid in produce for leased land.
