In English machine translation

† Damianos son of Pasoi (?) has paid for the diagraphon of the Lower (district?), 1st (installment?), canon of the 12th indiction, four keratia, total 4 keratia. Tybi 23 of the same 12th indiction. Through me, […].

The diagraphon was a Byzantine-period tax paid in money, and the canon was the annual tax assessment; 'Katoteros' probably refers to a lower district or quarter of the city. The clerk's name at the end is illegible.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Reçu pour le paiement du διάγραφον). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
