Report of former gymnasiarchs of Memphis on city tax payments TM 31673MemphisIII

Fragment of a report or declaration submitted by three Aurelii, former gymnasiarchs of Memphis, listing taxes paid in the city, such as the enkyklion, wine tax, and taxes on clothing sellers, leather and beer-making. It dates to the 3rd century AD.

In English machine translation

The enkyklion was a tax on sales and transfers of property; several taxes here were collected through tax farmers (misthotai). Only the left part of each line survives, so the exact purpose of the document is uncertain.
