A short account of money payments listed under the months Mesore and Phaophi, recording sums in drachmas and obols for three people: Diogenes the collector, Kaninis and Horion. It comes from Philadelphia in the Arsinoite nome and dates to the 3rd century.
The total in the last line is written in a corrupt or garbled form and cannot be read with certainty. A praktor was an official collector of taxes or dues.
