A short order on an ostracon from Pabykis to Nanis, whom he addresses as his lord and father, instructing him to give Herakleios a quantity of a commodity, 1 artaba and 2 matia. It comes from Kysis in the Great Oasis and dates to the 4th or early 5th century AD.
In English machine translation
To my lord father Nanis, Pabykis, greetings.
Give to Herakleios … 1 artaba, 2 matia.
Do not neglect this.
I have signed.
The word naming the commodity is illegible. The artaba and the mation are dry measures, the mation being a small fraction of an artaba; 'father' is probably a term of respect.
