An ostracon account recording deliveries of wheat made through a man named Victor, including an amount for the 10th indiction, with sums set aside for seed and a quantity of barley. It comes from Kysis in the Great Oasis and dates to the 4th or early 5th century AD.
In English machine translation
[…] through Victor, of wheat by the landowner's measure, 3 artabas.
Likewise through Victor, for the 10th indiction, of wheat […] artabas.
Of which, for seed, remainders 1 artaba […] 6 (?)
and of barley jointly, for seed, 4 artabas by the landowner's measure.
The "landowner's measure" (geouchikon metron) was a measure used on large estates, distinct from the public measure. The first line begins mid-word and some figures are illegible.
