Fragment of an ostracon listing men's names with their fathers' names, catalogued as a list of liturgical workers. It comes from Karanis in the Arsinoite nome and dates to the late 3rd or early 4th century AD.
The description as liturgical workers, men performing compulsory public service, comes from the catalogue, not from the surviving text, which preserves only names. Several patronymics are partly restored.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as List of Liturgical Workers). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
