Fragment of a document from the Hermopolite nome in the reign of Domitian concerning a quantity of wheat, totalling 27 1/2 artabas, to be measured out in the month of Epeiph, with mention of public dues. It is catalogued as a fragment of a land lease, and it is dated by a Choiak 10 of Domitian.

In English machine translation

[...] [...] I have received [...] [...] [...] of Domitian Augustus Germanicus, [...] artabas of wheat [...] which you will measure out to me in the month of Epeiph of the current [...], total 27 1/2 artabas of wheat, the public dues of the aforesaid [...] [Year ... of Imperator Caesar] Domitian Augustus Germanicus, Choiak 10.

The catalogue describes the text as a land lease, but the surviving words mention measured wheat, a total and public dues, so it might also be read as a receipt or acknowledgment. The title Germanicus places it after AD 83.
