Fragment of an ostracon listing individuals with quantities of grain in artabas, probably payments or deliveries. One of the persons is described as a cavalryman. It dates to the late 3rd or early 4th century AD and comes from Karanis in the Fayum.

In English machine translation

[…] […]n A…nos […] […]utemis, cavalryman, artabas […] Valeris son of Agonias, 50 artabas Apphas son of Arios, 15 artabas Horion son of Exas, 40 artabas Komon, 18 artabas Palemon, 11 (?) […] Aion son of Demas […] […] […]

The artaba was the standard Egyptian dry measure for grain. The figure after Palemon is uncertain and may be part of a number rather than a complete amount.
