Fragment of a land list drawn up man by man under a village scribe, recording landholders and amounts of uncultivated (dry) land. It probably comes from Samaria in the Arsinoite nome (Fayum) and dates to the mid-2nd century BC.

In English machine translation

[Column 1] […]chios, village scribe […] man by man […] of the village […] […] […] […] 1 […] of dry (uncultivated) land 1 […] […] […] 4 1/2 […] [… lines lost …] [Column 2] sy(?)

Philippos […] […] [… lines lost …]

The abbreviation 'sy' before several names is unexplained in the edition and is left untranslated. 'Chersos' denotes dry, uncultivated land not reached by the flood; names like Dositheos suggest the Jewish community at Samaria.
