The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →
A short ostracon account from Trimithis in the Great Oasis, consisting of entries with the abbreviation 'lith' followed by figures. The catalogue identifies it as an account of cotton.
The abbreviation 'lith' probably refers to litrai (pounds) or a related unit; the meaning of the figures is uncertain. The symbols read as fractions (1/2, 2/3) are interpretations of special signs.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Account of cotton). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
