A short ostracon account listing quantities of pork (piglets) in pounds against individual names, including Kyriake, Eulogios, Tourion and Paulos. It comes from Kysis in the Great Oasis and dates to the 4th or early 5th century AD.

In English machine translation

Account of piglets (pork) Kyriake, pounds […] Eulogios, pounds […] Tourion […] Paulos, [of the] village(?) […]

The heading word choiridia literally means 'piglets', but the amounts in pounds show the account concerns pork meat. The figures after each name are lost, and the word after Paulos 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 Compte de viande de porc). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
