A short ostracon receipt or delivery note from the pilgrimage site of Abu Mena recording two donkey-loads brought by Theodoros, with Menas and Piame named in the restored second line. It is dated Mesore 24 of a fourth indiction, in the first half of the 7th century AD.
Much of the text, including the names Menas and Piame and the date formula, is restored on the pattern of similar ostraca from Abu Mena. 'Donkey-loads' renders the abbreviated phorai onikai, a standard unit of transport.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
