Account of tax payments listing taxpayers by day TM 117586ArsinoitesMitte - spätes III v.Chr.

A fragment of an account of tax payments from the Arsinoite nome (Fayum), dating to the mid to late 3rd century BC. It lists Egyptian taxpayers by day of the month, some identified by trade (butchers, bakers) or by the village of Oxyrhyncha.

In English machine translation

The numbers 14, 17, 20 and 27 appear to be days of the month on which payments were made. Oxyrhyncha here is the Fayum village, not the city of Oxyrhynchus.
