A short payment order on an ostracon from Kysis in the Great (Kharga) Oasis, in which Horos, a deputy official, instructs Peteuris to issue eight bread rations to Neilos. It belongs to a dossier of such orders issued by Horos in the 4th or early 5th century AD.
The word for bread rations (annona) is partly restored. The diadochos was a deputy or substitute official; "only" (monas) is a standard safeguard against alteration of the amount.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Dossier du diadochos Hôros (ordres de paiement)). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
