A very fragmentary papyrus from the Herakleopolite nome, catalogued as a record of pay for river guards. Only the months Epeiph, Mesore and Hathyr, a mention of a secretary, and a reference to an amount given survive.

The identification as payments to river guards comes from the catalogue description, since the surviving words do not show it. The grammateus was a clerk or secretary attached to an office.
