A short delivery order in which Paniskos instructs the presbyter Psilis to give Plenis 7 artabas of wheat measured by the rent measure. It comes from Ain Waqfa in the Great (Kharga) Oasis and dates to the second half of the 4th century AD.
The 'rent measure' (phorikon metron) was the standard measure used for rents in kind. The last line is damaged; the 13 may belong to the day of the month or to the indiction year.
