Tax receipt issued by Senamounis, collector of money taxes for the Memnoneia district of Thebes, to a son of Petearbechis for payments of merismoi (apportioned levies) of the 19th year of Antoninus Pius. The payment, 6 drachmas 4 1/2 obols, was made in Pachon of year 20, that is AD 157.
Merismoi were taxes apportioned among the inhabitants of a district, often to cover deficits; there is no exact English equivalent. The taxpayer's own name and part of line 4 are lost or illegible.
