A fragmentary list of personal names, many of them Semitic, written on both sides of a papyrus from Dura-Europos in the 3rd century AD. One line on the front records a sum of 61 denarii.
The opening 'diak[…]' may be the start of a heading, perhaps a form of 'diakonos' or a term for distribution, but too little survives to be sure. Dura-Europos lies on the Euphrates in Syria, not in Egypt.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Fragmentary List of Names). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
