One catalogue description dates the text more broadly to the 2nd-3rd century AD and notes it is written in red ink. 'Tristomite' probably refers to a person from Tristomou, a nearby locality; the words 'princi[…]' and 'tabella[rius]' look like Latin-derived terms but are too damaged to interpret.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Copy of a List with Names of Tax Collectors). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
