Fragment of an account on an ostracon recording quantities of wheat and barley in artabas and matia, with personal names such as Pachmounis. It comes from Ain Waqfa in the Great Oasis (Kharga) and dates to the second half of the 4th century AD.
The artaba is a dry measure for grain; the mation is a smaller unit, a fraction of the artaba. The first line's place or personal name (Pmounsire...) is uncertain.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Comptes). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
