A list of grain quantities in artabas recorded against villages of the Arsinoite nome (Fayum), such as Oxyrhyncha, Hiera Nesos, Eleusis, Tebetny and Bousiris, for the month Tybi, with a second column containing draft notes for Mecheir. It dates to the late 3rd century BC.

Oxyrhyncha here is a Fayum village, not the city of Oxyrhynchus. The fraction readings are uncertain, and the catalogue describes the second column as letter drafts, though only an account-like phrase survives.
