Fragment of a register of house owners and their tenants, apparently from a census or property list, from the Arsinoite nome in the 2nd century AD. It records owners, shares of houses (including inherited property held in common) and the lodgers living in them, with their parents' names.

In English machine translation

[…] […] to […] […] of Ptolemaios M[…] […] of the Macedonians […] […]elios, freedman of Ammon[…] […] son of […]on, mother Isidora daughter of Dioskoros […] […] […] share of a house […] of Pethyllos, in which the lodgers (are): […] son of Pethyllos, mother Diodora, brother […] […] son of Maron, mother Satyriaina, Kalath[…] […] […] son of […]es son of Diokles, an ancestral property held in common […] […] for the remaining 1/2 share […] […] mother Thermoutharion […] […] mother Eirene […] […] likewise, private person […]

"Of the Macedonians" probably belongs to the Arsinoite quarter name "Makedonon" rather than an ethnic label. "Private person" (idiotes) marks someone without official or privileged status.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
