An ostracon from Kysis in the Great Oasis recording quantities of wheat and barley, in artabas and matia, connected with a man named Abraam. Entries include a gratuity (philanthropon) and payments toward rent. It dates to the 4th or early 5th century AD.

Philanthropon is a customary supplementary payment or gratuity; the mation is a small dry measure, a fraction of an artaba. The meaning of the 'gamma' after 'rent' is uncertain (possibly a year or indiction number).
