A tax receipt on an ostracon recording that Siphouris son of Psemonches paid an amount toward the merismos, an apportioned tax, for the third year of Hadrian. It is dated 27 May 119 and comes from Eileithyiopolis (Elkab).
Merismos was a tax apportioned among the inhabitants of a district; the amount paid is partly restored and its final figure is lost.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Reçu de mérismos). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
