An ostracon from Abu Mena recording the delivery of one donkey-load from Menas, a priest, on Mesore 24 of the eighth indiction. It dates to the first half of the 7th century AD.
A "donkey-load" (onike phora) was a standard transport unit; the commodity, probably wine, is not named. "Pieth" may be a place name or a further name, and its sense 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.
