A declaration submitted to the royal scribe of the Oxyrhynchite nome by Aurelia Anoubarion of Euergetis, reporting 3 arouras of her land near the farmstead of Satyros that had not been reached by the Nile flood. It was filed through Aurelius Apollonios on 3 March 219, in the reign of Elagabalus.

In English machine translation

85 To Aurelius Ourion also called Xenophon, royal scribe of the Oxyrhynchite nome, from Aurelia Anoubarion, daughter of Hermanoubis, her mother being Apollonia, from the city of Euergetis. I declare, in accordance with the orders, the 3 arouras of one-artaba land, unwatered, belonging to me near the farmstead of Satyros in the same Oxyrhynchite nome, formerly of Apollophanes son of Diophantos, from the allotment of Alexandros and Charidemos. Year 2 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Pius Felix Augustus, Phamenoth 7. I, Aurelia Anoubarion, have submitted this through me, Aurelius Apollonios.

The opening '85' is probably a sheet number in a roll of such declarations; this is the second of two declarations on the papyrus. 'One-artaba land' was land taxed at 1 artaba per aroura, and declaring it unwatered could secure tax relief.
