Fragmentary account from the Hermopolite nome, 2nd century AD, listing individuals with ages, sums of money and quantities of wheat, apparently relating to obligations, condemnations and payments with a fifty-percent surcharge. Names include Artemidoros, Psois son of Kastor, Asies son of Phibis and Pekysis son of Harpbekis of Temenkyrkis.

The 'half-addition' (hemiolia) is a 50% penalty surcharge on arrears; 'sphragis' here likely denotes a land district rather than a seal. Several readings, such as 'condemned', are abbreviated and uncertain.
