A notice of death submitted by the priest Panephremmis to the two presidents of the priests of Soknopaiou Nesos in the Fayum, reporting that his full brother Harpagathes, also a registered priest, died in the month Kaisareios of Nero's 12th year. He asks that his brother be entered in the register of the deceased.

In English machine translation

To Apynchis son of Apynchis and Stotoetis son of Apynchis, presidents of the priests of Soknopaiou Nesos, from Panephremmis son of Horos, grandson of Harpagathes, his mother being Tanephremmis daughter of Harpagathes, priest, one of those from Soknopaiou Nesos. My brother by the same father and the same mother, Harpagathes son of Horos, grandson of Harpagathes, his mother being Tanephremmis daughter of Harpagathes, a priest registered in the aforementioned village, died in the month of Kaisareios of the past year 12 of Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus Imperator. Therefore I submit this memorandum so that he may be entered among the dead.

Kaisareios is the honorific name for the Egyptian month Mesore (late July to August). Year 12 of Nero corresponds to AD 65/66, so the death occurred in summer AD 66.
