†
† From apa Jakob, 2 donkey-loads, two.
In the month of Mesore, 24, indiction 24 (?) †
An indiction number 24 is impossible, since indictions run in 15-year cycles, so the figure is probably a scribal slip or misreading. 'Donkey-loads' (onikai phorai) is a standard unit for transported goods, often wine jars or other produce.
