A small fragment of Greek text on the verso of a papyrus, probably from Karanis in the Arsinoite nome, dating to the 2nd century AD. Only scattered words survive, among them a mention of the house of some people and the word "downcast".

In English machine translation

[verso] […] … 2 […] having risen (?) … […] the house of the people […] downcast (?) … and […] but if … […] […] … […] […] … […] […] … […] […] of no one (?) … [… 1 line lost …]

The title "Assessment List (?)" in the records probably describes the recto. The vocabulary of this verso ("rising", "downcast") may point to an astrological or literary text rather than a document.

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