An order from Ischyrion, part of the Heroninos archive of the Appianus estate, instructing Heroninos, manager at Theadelphia, to hand over 200 monochora of wine to the manager Horion through the wine-seller Epagathos. The wine came from the estates of Leukos and Kolokynthai, and its price, at 14 drachmas per jar, was to be credited towards the tinagmos of the village of Dionysias.
A monochoron is a single-measure wine jar. Tinagmos is a payment or levy of uncertain nature (literally a 'shaking'), here apparently connected with the village of Dionysias.
