A short ostracon account recording a number of donkey-loads delivered or handled through a man named Ioannes, probably a deacon, with a total. It comes from the pilgrimage site of Abu Mena in the first half of the 7th century AD.
In English machine translation
† Through Ioannes, deacon (?):
donkey-loads […]
Total: donkey-loads […]
The title 'deacon' is restored. The numbers of loads are lost; 'donkey-loads' (onikai phorai) was a standard unit of transport, often for wine or other goods at the shrine of St Menas.
