An official account submitted by Artemidoros, royal scribe of the Themistos division of the Arsinoite nome, listing rent income from imperial estates (formerly belonging to Vespasian, Pallas, Iucundus and Chresimos) and from leases held by named individuals in the city. The sums are given in drachmas with additional charges and totals.
The ousiai were imperial estates, here identified by former owners such as the freedman Pallas. Several words (συμολ, κομανοῦ, the final line) are abbreviated or obscure and their translation is uncertain; the stated totals do not obviously match the entries.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Rendite di terreni). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
