A granary receipt recording that one artaba of wheat from the harvest of year 3 of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus was delivered to the metropolis granary on Epeiph 21, credited to Charax in the name of Pasemis son of Pikos. The granary official Ammonios signed it.

In English machine translation

Measured into the granary of the metropolis, from the produce of year 3 of Antoninus and Verus the lords Augusti, Epeiph 21, on behalf of Charax, in the name of Pasemis son of Pikos, grandson of Pamonthes, one (artaba) of wheat, total 1 artaba of wheat. I, Ammonios, have signed.

Charax is probably a place (a village or quarter) for which the payment was made; the abbreviation Χά(ρακος) is expanded by the editor. This type of ostracon is typical of Upper Egypt, likely Thebes or Diospolis Magna, but no provenance is recorded.
