Fragmentary account of fodder for animals TM 33315Kellis (Oasis Magna)IV

A fragmentary account from Kellis in the Dakhla Oasis, apparently concerning animals and their feed, with entries for barley, chaff and payments in silver reckoned in nummi. It dates to the 4th century AD.

In English machine translation

Account of animals (?) […] of barley […] chaff […] the other […] fodder allowance (?) […] until […] […] fodder allowance (?) […] until the […] of silver in nummi […] watering (?) […]

The heading word beginning ktē- is probably 'livestock' (ktēnē), but only its start survives. 'Probolē' here seems to denote a feed ration or allowance, and the final word may refer to watering animals or a watering trough.

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