Grain receipt from Thebes recording small amounts of wheat delivered to the metropolis granary in the names of Onnophris son of Psenminis and Paphis son of Paphis on 3 July AD 113, signed by Gaius. A second receipt follows, in which the grain-tax collector Germanos son of Horion acknowledges a quarter artaba of wheat from Onnophris.
The stated total (written as 1/3) does not match the sum of 1/6 and 1/3 artaba, which would be 1/2; the fraction signs may have been misread or miswritten. The praktor sitikon was the official responsible for collecting grain taxes.
