106 To Apion, royal scribe of the Prosopite nome, from Ammonios son of Amenneus, from Thelbonthon Siphtha. I register, in accordance with the orders of Calvisius Statianus, the most illustrious prefect, for the house-by-house census taking place under good auspices, the property belonging to me in the village: a house and empty plots of Ammonios son of Amenneus, grandson of Harnektotes, formerly belonging to my father, in which live: Ammonis son of Amenneus, grandson of Harnektotes, mother Smithis daughter of Harnektotes, 47 years old; Smithis daughter of Harnektotes, mother Therepsois, his mother, 69 years old. Year 14 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus Armeniacus Medicus Parthicus Germanicus Maximus, Epeiph 26. I, Ammonios son of Amenneus, have submitted this as stated above. I, Horos son of Phibis, wrote on his behalf since he does not know letters. Through Harpok[...], column 42.

The numbers at the top (106) and bottom (column 42) reflect the declaration's position in an official roll of glued-together census returns. The declarant appears in the list under the form Ammonis.
