A fragmentary bilingual Latin and Greek document, apparently a receipt concerning soldiers and the annona (military rations or supplies) for one day, 14 Pachon. It is dated by the consulship of Diocletian and Maximian, corresponding to 9 May 303.

In English machine translation

[…] … received (?) 250 denarii (?) […] … […] … […] … soldiers […] … […] […] for one day, 14 Pachon, annona […] […] in the consulship of our lords Diocletian Augustus for the 8th time and [Maximian for the 6th time] […]

The annona was the in-kind supply of rations to soldiers, here reckoned per day. The reading of the sum in line 1 as 250 'nummi' or denarii is uncertain.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
