An order on an ostracon from Petros, a standard-bearer (signifer), instructing Chrestos, a supervisor (epimeletes), to supply one marion of wine to Apellos, a priest. It is dated to a 4th indiction and comes from Kysis in the Kharga Oasis, 4th to early 5th century AD.
The marion is a wine measure attested especially in the Oases. The signifer was a military standard-bearer; the epimeletes was a supervisor, probably of stores.
