A fragmentary account of bread from Kysis in the Kharga Oasis, listing quantities of psomia (bread rations or loaves) with a second figure in each line that is triple the first, and a total. It dates to the 4th or early 5th century AD.
Psomion means a morsel or small loaf of bread; in each line the second number is three times the first, perhaps a conversion into another unit. The total of 141 does not match the surviving lines alone, so earlier entries are lost.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Compte de pain). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
