A short receipt on an ostracon in which a certain Pamphilos acknowledges receiving a sum of drachmas for year 87, in the month of Pharmouthi, from someone described as a monk (or the receipt is addressed to a monk). It comes from the Bahariya Oasis (Oasis Parva).
In English machine translation
[…] Pamphilos […] monk, greetings.
I have received from you for year 87 […] drachmas. Pharmouthi.
Year 87 is probably counted in an era rather than a regnal year, perhaps the era of Diocletian, which would place the text in the early 4th century AD. Because the opening is lost, it is unclear whether Pamphilos or the addressee is the monk.
