Two small fragments of a document, probably a sale or similar conveyance of real property, describing house plots and a house with courtyard together with their appurtenances and listing the neighbouring properties on each side. It dates to the 2nd century AD and comes from the Arsinoite or Herakleopolite nome.

The 'cheirographon' is a privately written contract referred to as the source of the boundary description. The two fragments overlap in content (two eastern neighbours), so they may belong to different property descriptions.
