A census return submitted to the strategos Herammon also called Kastor by Apollonios son of Dioskoros of Oxyrhynchus, following orders of the prefects Tineius Demetrius and Aurelius Verianus. He registers, for the house-by-house census of Commodus' 28th year, property he inherited from his maternal grandmother Ammonia; the rest of the text is lost.

In English machine translation

To Herammon also called Kastor, strategos, from Apollonios son of Dioskoros son of Apollonios, his mother being Meithous, from the city of Oxyrhynchus. In accordance with the orders of Tineius Demetrius, the most illustrious prefect, and of Aurelius Verianus, former prefect, I register, for the house-by-house census of the past 28th year of Aurelius Commodus Antoninus Caesar the lord, the [property] belonging to me by right of inheritance, formerly of my deceased maternal grandmother Ammonia […] […] […] […] registration (?) […] […] […]

The 28th year of Commodus (counted from Marcus Aurelius' reign) is AD 187/8, the census year, so the return was filed in the following year. The registered object, probably a house or share of one, is lost after the grandmother's name.
