Fragmentary ostracon listing amounts in artabas, probably of grain, against names that are mostly lost, among them perhaps Artemidis and Pap… It dates to the 4th century AD and comes from Mounesis in the Great Oasis.

In English machine translation

[…] 1 […] 1 artaba […] … 1 artaba […] Artemidis (?) … 5 artabas […] Pap… 2 artabas […] public (?) … 2 artabas

The commodity is not named; grain is inferred from the artaba measure. The word in the last line may refer to public (state) payments or land.

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