Fragment of a list, probably recording substitutions of men in liturgical (compulsory public) service, naming a Sarapion also called N[…], assistants (hyperetai) serving in place of Herakleides and others. It dates to the late 2nd or early 3rd century AD and probably comes from the Arsinoite nome.

Agathos Daimon in the first line is probably a personal name rather than the god. Hyperetai were assistants or attendants serving officials, often as a compulsory public duty.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Lista di sostituzioni per liturgie (?)). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
