Fragments of a land survey listing plots by their neighbours on each side, with the names of cultivators and the areas (probably in arouras) sown with wheat, barley, arakos and hay. It dates to the 2nd century BC and probably comes from Oxyrhyncha in the Arsinoite nome.

Arakos is a leguminous fodder crop, often rendered as vetch or chickling. Despite the catalogue title, the text reads as a crop and field survey with abutting neighbours.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Greek household record (kat’ ethnos)). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
