Fragment from the middle of a register of taxpayers, listing men by their own and father's names together with their mother's and maternal grandfather's names. A drachma sign shows it recorded money payments. It dates to the 2nd or 3rd century AD; provenance unknown.
The beginnings and ends of all lines are lost, so no payer's own name and no amount survives in full. "The elder" (presbyteros) distinguishes a man from a younger namesake.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Register of Tax - payments). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
This list of names appears to give, after the name of each man, the names of his father, his father's father, his mother and his mother's father. That this is the middle portion of a register of tax payments is evident because of the symbol for drachma preserved in l. 16.
