A fragmentary account of payments or deliveries in kind, recording quantities of grain, including wheat, in artabas and measures. It comes from Soknopaiou Nesos in the Arsinoite nome and dates to the early 3rd century AD; a god (probably the local temple) and the month Thoth are mentioned.

The 'measure' (metron) is a smaller dry measure used alongside the artaba. The reading 'wooden' (xyli-) is a guess from a broken word.
