A tax assessment list from Oxyrhynchus, probably of the late 6th century AD, setting out grain dues (converted into gold solidi) and gold taxes for several cities and their districts: Oxyrhynchus with Kynopolis, Herakleopolis and Neilopolis. A rate of 15 1/4 solidi per thousand is applied to each total.
The purpose of the rate of 15 1/4 solidi per thousand is unclear; it may be a surcharge or an amount due per thousand solidi assessed. 'Myriads' (units of 10,000) are presumably of artabas of grain converted at 10 artabas per solidus.
