A badly damaged fragment of an account in Greek, with three columns of which only two lines survive. They mention a sum of 758 and a total of 84 artabas, probably of grain. It dates from the first to fourth centuries AD.
The artaba was the standard Egyptian dry measure for grain. What the 758 refers to is lost.
