Account of wheat deliveries through Petheuris and others TM 34572Kysis (Oasis Magna)IV - Anfang V

An ostracon account of wheat deliveries for the 8th indiction, headed by Petheuris, apparently an epimeletes (curator). It lists small amounts of wheat in artabas and matia brought through various people, including the landowner Olympios, Petheuris himself and Isokrates, at Kysis in the Kharga Oasis in the 4th or early 5th century AD.

In English machine translation

The opening abbreviation "Pr" is unexplained, and the reading of Petheuris' title as epimeletes is uncertain. The mation is a small dry measure, a fraction of an artaba.
