An account of wheat taxes paid by landholders in two Arsinoite villages, Theogonis and Kerkesephis, listing catoecic land and imposed land with the wheat due and supplementary charges. It ends with village totals and a grand total of 106 2/3 artabas, and dates to AD 189-192.

In English machine translation

Of Theogonis: Herakleia daughter of Achilleus and Thaubarion daughter of Herakleides and Onesimos also called Herakleides: catoecic land, 13 1/2 1/4 arouras, 14 1/3 1/8 artabas of wheat; additional charges (prosmetroumena), 2 1/3 1/12 artabas of wheat imposed land (epibole), … aroura(s), 1/2 1/3 1/24 artaba of wheat; additional charges, 1/8 artaba of wheat Total for the village: 17 1/2 1/3 1/24 artabas of wheat Of Kerkesephis: Valeria Arsinoe through Sarapammon son of Apollonios: catoecic land, 6 arouras, 6 1/3 artabas of wheat; additional charges, 1 1/12 artabas of wheat imposed land (epibole), 1/3 artaba of wheat; additional charges, 1/12 artaba of wheat Total for the village: 7 [1/2] 1/3 artabas of wheat Grand total: 106 2/3 artabas of wheat

The grand total of 106 2/3 artabas exceeds the two village totals, so this is evidently the end of a longer account. Prosmetroumena are surcharges measured in addition to the basic tax; epibole is land compulsorily assigned for cultivation.
