A fragmentary list of names followed by an account of poll-tax (epikephalaion) money handled by Apphous, a systates, from Pauni of year 13 to Pharmouthi of year 14. It records sums in talents and drachmas, including amounts paid under the primipilarius Leontios and money from an account for cloaks for Saracens.

In English machine translation

Hero[…] Ploutogenes also called Paues Aphous son of Se…thou… son of Horion mother Tapous Totoes, brother, of the same parents Pammenes Ananias son of Theon, aged 9 (?) […] the 4, through Eudaimon, scribe, Hierax and Eupo…ios Account of the treasury (?) of Apphous, systates of the poll tax, from Pauni of year 13 to Pharmouthi of year 14: 125 talents 2,100 drachmas; and in the time of Leontios the primipilarius, 41 talents 4,816 drachmas; of the payment order of the nome, 3 talents 400 drachmas; total together 170 talents 1,316 drachmas. From the account of cloaks for Saracens, 13 talents. Pachon 14, from the disbursement of pay, Nestor son of Papylion, basilikos (?), 7 talents 2,000 drachmas; total together 190 talents 3,316 drachmas. And through me, Sarapion, […] talents […] … […]70 talents 1,316 drachmas […]

The epikephalaion was a poll tax; a systates was a local liturgical official responsible for collections. The reading 'tami' (treasury?) and some figures are uncertain, and the arithmetic of the totals does not fully match the items.
