Fragment of an account listing payments, including wages connected with two workmen, a full settlement of 4,420 drachmas, an order of one Epimachos, and purchases of a pair of footwear and a sleeveless tunic. It comes from the Oxyrhynchite nome, late 2nd century AD.

In English machine translation

[…] of the 2 workmen […] which were […] […] in full payment, 4,420 drachmas […] to the stranger (?) […]phos, order of Epimachos […] of felt shoes (?), 1 pair, 56 drachmas 1 obol; a sleeveless tunic […]

The restored word 'follatoria' denotes a kind of footwear (felt or socks); 'kolobion' is a sleeveless or short-sleeved tunic. The reading 'xenos' (stranger) in line 3 may instead belong to a name.

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