Fragment of an official list from the Arsinoite nome (Fayum), dating to the 2nd century, recording plots of cleruchic land by numbered cleruchy and assigning them to cultivators. Only names of holders and cultivators and the cleruchy numbers survive.

In English machine translation

[1] […] [2] […] […] […] of the 50th (?) cleruchy, to [cultivator] […] of Orsenouphis […] […] of the 53rd (?) cleruchy, to cultiv[ator] […] cultivator of Alexander, (arouras) […] to […] and of the 55th (?) cleruchy, to cultivator Atr[…] of Sibolles […] […] to cultivator Ou[…] of Apollonios […] to cultivator Amm[on…] […] of Petesouchos […] […] of the 54th (?) cleruchy, to cultiv[ator] […] […] of Orsenouphis […] of Onnophris […] […]

The numbers before 'cleruchy' (50, 53, 55, 54) are probably numbered cleruchic units or plots; 'cleruchy' refers to land originally granted to military settlers. The records give only the 2nd century without specifying BC or AD.
