Two fragments of a receipt in which someone acknowledges receiving from people of the village of Psinabla in the Panopolite nome the customary payment due for the tax quota of a third indiction year. It was drawn up by the notary Isakios and comes from the archive found at Aphrodite (Aphrodites Kome) in the Antaiopolite nome.

In English machine translation

[Fragment A] [… 6 lines lost …] […] of the village of Psinabla in the Panopolite nome, greetings. I have received from you [and have been paid in full] […] the customary amount [given to me] for the tax quota (kanon) of the third [indiction] […] [Fragment B] Written by me, Isakios, notary.

Kanon refers to the regular annual tax assessment; the indiction is a 15-year fiscal cycle, so the exact year cannot be fixed. The text was found at Aphrodite though it concerns a village in the Panopolite nome.
