Fragment of an estate account recording wine received (including from Pelusion and Taureinos) and its distribution in jars of various types to overseers, cellarers, sword-bearers and others. It belongs to the archive of Heroninos, manager of an estate at Theadelphia in the Fayum, in the mid-3rd century AD.

Dichoron, monochoron, knidion, spathion and Aminaean are names of jar types or wine varieties with no exact English equivalent; Pelusion here is probably the Fayum village, not the Delta city. Marinos is apparently a type of wine.
