Arabikou, wheat 300 artabas. Tolis, wheat 200 artabas. Pap…arnon, wheat 52 artabas. Allophylon, wheat 100 artabas. To farmers of the metropolitan land of persons without means, wheat […]55 artabas.

The word breouion is the Latin breve, a summary list or register. The 'persons without means' (aporoi) were landholders unable to meet obligations, whose land was worked by assigned farmers.
