An inventory of household textiles and other items, mostly garments, blankets, pillows and towels, left in the keeping of a woman named Arsinoe. It dates to the 3rd century AD and comes from Oxyrhynchus.
Several garment terms (subricopallium, smallea, sabanophakiarion, epikarsion) are Latin or rare Greek words with no exact English equivalent. "Aphrodite" probably refers to a statuette of the goddess, and the pyrgiskos is a small tower-shaped box.

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
