A short storeroom note on an ostracon listing a weight of 4 1/2 pounds and several items described by technical compound terms, probably parts or fittings counted by their segments or rings. It dates to the 4th century AD and comes from Oxyrhynchus.

In English machine translation

4 1/2 pounds eight-soupha (?) and three-soupha (?), upper and lower, two-knuckled (?) twelve-ringed (?)

The compounds oktasoupha, trisoupha, dikondyla and dodekakyklia are rare technical words of uncertain meaning, so their translations are tentative.

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