Ostracon receipt from a collector (praktor) of the Islands district near Thebes to a man probably named Petechespochrates son of Chabonchonsis, paid through his son Horos. It acknowledges a share of a third delivered in place of green fodder for the cavalry unit stationed at Koptos, from the harvest of year 22, probably AD 181-182.
Grastis is green fodder, here commuted for another payment for the ala at Koptos; the catalogue says the receipt also has a note in Demotic. The payer's name is partly restored.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Reçu d'orge ou de fourrage, 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.
