Fragmentary agreement in which a woman named Taapis, with her husband Harthoonis son of Sarapion as guardian, cedes catoecic grain land near Seryphis to two women, apparently Teteuris and Didyme. It comes from Oxyrhynchus in the first half of the 1st century AD.

Catoecic land was land originally held by military settlers; its transfer (cession) was registered through officials connected with the cavalry settlers, which is likely the sense of the phrase 'through those of the cavalry'.
