Opening of a two-year lease in which Aurelius Pamounios, son of Petros and Lousia, from a village of the Hermopolite nome, leases property from Aurelius Ioannes son of Phoibammon of Hermopolis. It is dated 3 October 520 at Hermopolis; the terms of the lease are lost.
The object of the lease is lost, so it is unclear whether land or a building was leased. The verso docket is followed by fragmentary Coptic words, perhaps referring to land (ⲧⲓⲱϩⲉ, 'the field').

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
