Receipt from the city collection office recording that Pasis son of Semtheus paid a sum of three drachmas (?) and two obols in connection with land used for growing vegetables, for the month Hathyr. It dates to 9 January 255 BC, probably in the Arsinoite nome.
The word lachaneia refers to land cultivated with vegetables, or a charge on it; the exact object of the payment before the number 29 is lost. Year 30 is of Ptolemy II.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Einzahlungsquittung für Land, das zum Anbau von Gemüse genutzt wird (λαχανεία)). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
