Fragment of a Latin ostracon from the quarry settlement of Mons Claudianus in the Eastern Desert, listing soldiers' names under a Roman calendar date. The names are assigned to numbered slots (first to fourth), probably night watches or guard duties.
The abbreviations t(ertia), q(uarta), p(rima), s(ecunda) are most likely numbered watches (vigiliae) of a guard roster; the expansions of the abbreviated names are uncertain.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
