A fragmentary list of house owners and properties in Oxyrhynchus, recording small houses, courtyards and plots, apparently in the western part of the Kalathos quarter, together with owners, shares and the ages of some persons. It mentions a debtor Dionysios and a collector of metropolitan taxes, Aurelius Iustus. Early 3rd century AD.

"Private category" renders the term for property held privately rather than as public land. The mention of a debtor suggests a link to property seizure or tax collection.
