Sarapion and Metrodoros to Pikos son of Petemenophis, greetings. We have received pasture-dues (?) for 35 sheep, 100 goats, and wool (?) and acanth(a) for Hathyr and Choiak.
Year 38 of Caesar, Choiak 30.
The term nomē here refers to pasturage or grazing dues on flocks. The abbreviated 'akanth( )' probably refers to acanthus or acacia wood, and the payee's name Pikos is partly restored.
