A short ostracon from the Roman fort of Didymoi in the Eastern Desert recording a sack holding 1 artaba, associated with a man named Aristophas son of Kronios in the squad (dekania) of Mouis. It probably documents a grain delivery or ration.
A dekania was a small military unit under a decurion (dekanos); the father's name of Mouis is only partly legible.
