The districts South (Notos) and possibly the Islands (Nesoi) are subdivisions of the Theban area; a note in Demotic is reported to accompany the Greek text, in the lost lines. Fractions written as 'third' are read as 1/3 and 2/3 in the totals.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Reçu de blé avec note en démotique). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
