In English machine translation

[1] [… lines lost …] [2] [… lines lost …] […] […] […] […] […] of the arithmetikon tax, to Stratippos […] for the expense of the milk-animals (?), to Ammas […] and of the sheep […] for the 16th year […] and for the 17th year, for the same sheep […] for the expense of the white ones (?) to Ammas, silver drachmas […] and to Eutyches for the olive trees […]

The arithmetikon was a tax, probably on animals, here apparently paid for sheep. 'Galaktina' (milk animals) and 'leuka' (white ones, perhaps white sheep) are uncertain renderings of terse account entries.
