† From apa Menas, priest:
donkey-load 1, in the month Mesore 22, indiction 8 †
A "donkey-load" (onike phora) was a standard transport unit, here probably of wine or another commodity delivered to the pilgrimage site. The indiction year cannot be converted into an exact calendar year without further context.
