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 recording rations of bread loaves, tiphagia and barley delivered through Domnion to the brothers Paulos and Gelasios. It was found at Trimithis in the Great Oasis, with entries dated to Epeiph 20 and Mesore 12.
Tiphagia appear to be a type of bread or baked item made from tiphe (einkorn wheat); the exact sense is uncertain. The barley quantity is illegible, and "brothers" may refer to monks or members of a community rather than siblings.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Ration account). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
