A short ostracon receipt or delivery note recording two donkey-loads received from Daniel, a doorkeeper, on Mesore 20 of a fourth indiction year. It comes from the pilgrimage site of Abu Mena in the first half of the 7th century AD.
The goods carried in the donkey-loads (onikai phorai) are not named. The indiction year is given without a regnal year, so the exact year is uncertain.
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.
