A tax receipt recording that a person named Poli[…] paid 17 drachmas 4 obols to Ision and his fellow collectors of money taxes at the village of Apias in the Arsinoite nome for the arithmetikon tax on katoikoi for year 12. It dates to about AD 203-204.

[…] paid to Ision [and] his associates, collectors of money taxes of the village of Apias, Poli[…] […] for the arithmetikon of katoikoi of year 12, 17 drachmas 4 obols, total 17 drachmas 4 obols.
The arithmetikon katoikon was a money tax levied on katoikic (settler) land or its holders; it has no exact English equivalent. Year 12 presumably refers to the reign of Septimius Severus (and Caracalla), whose titles stood in the lost opening lines.
