Extract from the property record office register of the division of Dionysios TM 219308Ptolemais Euergetis (Arsinoites)

A fragmentary extract from a register (diastroma) of the property record office at Ptolemais Euergetis, the capital of the Arsinoite nome. The verso records property transactions involving several women, with dates in the reign of Nerva and references to city quarters, a payment of 500 drachmas and a third share of property.

In English machine translation

A diastroma was a register kept by the property record office (bibliotheke enkteseon) listing holdings by owner; 'sheet' refers to the numbered sheets of a glued papyrus roll. The text mentions year 2 of Nerva (AD 97/98) and the deified Hadrian, so the copy was made after AD 138.
