Ostracon receipt from Thebes in which Agathos Daimon and his fellow collectors acknowledge payment of 2 drachmas for the merismoi (apportioned taxes) of year 11 from Petechon son of Mesoueris, paid through his daughter. It is dated 24 June 149 AD, under Antoninus Pius.
Merismoi were taxes apportioned among the inhabitants of a district; there is no exact English equivalent. The daughter's name is only partly preserved.
