A short account from Roman Egypt listing individuals each credited with one artaba of grain, followed by a section on hay with payments in drachmas. It dates to the 3rd century AD; its provenance is unknown.
The word written 'lyparachmas' in the hay section is obscure; it may be a garbled or abbreviated form involving drachmas, and its exact meaning is uncertain.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Account of Grain and Hay). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
