A tax receipt issued by a receiver of the annona and of gold levied under the regular (canonical) tax headings, including the recruit tax, acknowledging payment of 12 carats of gold for a tenth indiction. It comes from Hermopolis in Late Antique Egypt.
"Mauron" may be a place name or refer to Moorish troops for whom the annona was collected; "tirones" refers to the levy for or commutation of army recruits. The payer's name is lost.
