Prostates means a head, patron or representative, here perhaps of a person or group named Olymp[…]; the exact sense is unclear. The description as a cash payment order comes from the catalogue, since the surviving text is too damaged to show it.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Ordre de paiement en espèces). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
