In English machine translation
[…] from Leonides, 4 arouras, 5 artabas
[…] of Theogiton, 12 arouras, 15 artabas
[…] of Sarapion, through Chairemon
[…] 5 arouras, 6 1/8 (?) artabas
[…]ion, sailor

[…] of the agoranomos (?), through
[…] 1 aroura, 1 1/2 artabas of wheat
[…] 3/4 (?) aroura, […] artabas of wheat
The ratio of artabas to arouras (about 1 1/4 per aroura) suggests a land tax or rent in wheat. The fraction readings and the abbreviation taken as agoranomos (a market or notarial official) are uncertain.
