Fragment of an official report, probably a copy, of a land inspection (episkepsis) carried out by a royal scribe of the Oxyrhynchite nome, also called Theon, together with the strategos Phokion and an official appointed by the epistrategos Maximus. It lists landholders and acreages; written at Oxyrhynchus in Pharmouthi of year 22 of Antoninus Pius (AD 159).

In English machine translation

Episkepsis was an official survey of land, often to check its condition or flooding status for taxation. The emperor's name is lost, but year 22 matches Antoninus Pius.
