An ostracon carrying a payment order from Pierios to the farmer Ptolemaios the younger. It instructs him to give Heraklammon, an overseer, one artaba and 6 matia of wheat from the rents he holds. It was written at Kysis in the Great Oasis in the 4th or early 5th century AD.
The mation is a small dry measure, a fraction of an artaba. The name of the measuring standard used is illegible.
