A list submitted by Herakleides, village scribe of Philadelphia, to Ammonios, strategos of the Herakleides and Polemon divisions of the Arsinoite nome, naming men of the village who had served as poll-tax collectors. For each it notes their ties to imperial estates, property and literacy, apparently as candidates for liturgical service, in the reign of Claudius.
