Account of wheat listing individuals and amounts TM 29985unbekanntII - III

The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →

A short account listing several individuals, mostly with Egyptian names, each followed by amounts of wheat, probably in artabas and their fractions. It is written on an ostracon of the 2nd to 3rd century AD.

In English machine translation

Senk[…], daughter of Pete[…] […] […] Senpetechonsis, daughter of Petechonsis, wheat 1/2, 1/32 Phmois, likewise, son of Horos, 15, 1/32, 1/64 Esoueris, son of Agathos 16, Tithoes, son of Pete[…] […] wheat 3 […] son of Phatres […] 4 […] wheat 4 […]

The numerals after the wheat sign are read here as fractions (1/2, 1/32, 1/64) of an unstated unit, presumably the artaba; their exact interpretation is uncertain. Several lines are largely illegible.

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
