Fragments of a register of persons, listing individuals by their own name, father's name and grandfather's name, often with the mother's name, and referring to memoranda, regnal years and a count of houses. It dates to the 2nd century AD and probably comes from the Arsinoite nome.
In English machine translation
The mention of houses and memoranda suggests a census- or tax-related register. In column i the Greek article 'tes' (of the, feminine) most likely introduces a mother's name, so the rendering 'daughter of' is uncertain.
