A tax receipt recording that Serenos paid money, 1 artaba of wheat and half an artaba of barley for year 20 in respect of the village of Hephaistias. It was issued in Pharmouthi of year 22 of Caracalla, AD 214, in the Arsinoite nome.
The payer's title 'ex-decadarch' is a restoration; the sums of money are illegible. The payment was entered under the reckoning (accounting period) of Phamenoth though made in Pharmouthi.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Steuerquittung für Hephaistias). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
