A short order for delivery written on an ostracon by Arrianos to a man he addresses as his son, instructing him to give 2 artabas (and some matia) of a commodity to a son of Herak[…]. It comes from Kysis in the Great Oasis and dates to the 4th or early 5th century AD.
In English machine translation
To my lord son […]
Arrianos, greetings. [Give]
to the son Herak[…]
2 artabas, matia […]
Total 2 artabas, … matia […]
The mation is a small dry measure, a fraction of the artaba. The name of the recipient, beginning Herak-, is lost after its first letters, and the commodity being measured is not preserved.
