The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →
Ostracon with a payment order from Pachmounis, an optio (a junior military officer), to Peteuris, instructing him to issue rations (annona) to a man named Abraam. It belongs to a dossier of such orders from Kysis in the Great Oasis, dating to the 4th or early 5th century AD.
The annona was the ration or allowance in kind issued to soldiers. The recipient's title (overseer) and name are largely restored from parallel orders in the same dossier.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Dossier de l’ optio Pachmounis (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.
