A short ostracon receipt or account from Abu Mena recording donkey-loads delivered from a deacon named Io(annes?). One entry is for Marth(a?), 1 load, and the total is 12 loads. It is dated Mesore 28 of an indiction year, in the first half of the 7th century AD.

In English machine translation

† From Io(annes?), deacon: Marth(a?), 1 donkey-load Total: 12 donkey-loads Month Mesore 28, indiction [14]

The names are abbreviated, so Ioannes and Martha are only probable expansions. The total of 12 loads implies that entries are missing or were recorded elsewhere, and the indiction number 14 is restored.
