An ostracon from Trimithis in the Dakhla Oasis, written on both faces, recording or labelling a delivery of 2 artabas of wheat to the house of the landowner, made through Ammonios. The second face repeats the note but calls the recipient "my lord".
The word rendered "landowner" is geouchos, a holder of landed estates. The catalogue describes the piece as an address tag.
