A badly damaged series of tax receipts listing repeated payments, mostly of 8 drachmas each, made on various dates through the Egyptian year. It mentions an emperor named Marcus Aurelius and a person named Eutyches, and dates to the 2nd or 3rd century AD.
The emperor 'Marcus Aurelius' may be Marcus Aurelius himself or a later emperor with the same names (e.g. Commodus, Caracalla or Severus Alexander). The left side of every line is lost, so the payers and tax type are not preserved.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Reçus de taxes). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
