A short payment or delivery order from the monastery at Bawit authorizing the issue of one kollathon of boiled wine and one jar of honey to Namer, delivered through the priest Serenos. It is dated Phaophi 26 of a 15th indiction, in the 8th century AD.
The opening Coptic-Greek words 'eplogos namer' are of uncertain sense; 'Namer' may be a personal name. Hepsema is a boiled-down grape must, and the kollathon and kannion are container measures.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Ordre de paiement d'hepsèma et de miel). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
