Fragment of an account, apparently of a religious association, listing expenses in the month of Pharmouthi for sacrifices, a garland, chickpeas, wood, vinegar, mustard, salt, pots, perfume, rushes and wine, with payments made through Orsenouphis and Inaros. Sums are in bronze drachmas and talents. It probably dates to the second half of the 2nd century BC.

Amounts are in copper drachmas; the talent equals 6000 drachmas. 'Paidaria' (slave boys or attendants) probably refers to servants at the association's banquet.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Abrechnung eines Kultvereins).
