A short account on an ostracon listing quantities in artabas and matia credited to or delivered by several individuals, headed as an account of cheese-makers or cheeses. It comes from Ain Waqfa in the Great Oasis (Kharga) and dates to the second half of the 4th century AD.
The heading word τυριτῶν is uncertain in meaning, possibly 'cheese-makers' or 'cheeses'. The matia is a small dry measure, a fraction of an artaba; Pinor is presumably a local place name.
