A small fragment of a document concerning land, apparently twenty arouras of purchased land near Pharbaitha, described with its boundaries (west, south) and its rights of entry and exit. It comes from the Arsinoite nome and dates to the 2nd or 3rd century AD.

The boundary description and the phrase 'with entrances and exits' suggest a sale or similar conveyance of land, but the genre cannot be confirmed. The aroura is an Egyptian land measure of about 0.68 acres.
