An ostracon order issued by the exactores (tax officials) instructing Didymos, the epimeletes, to deliver four kolobia of wine to the staff of a tribune for the 8th indiction. It is countersigned by two exactores, Peisistratos and Porieuthes, and dates to the 4th century AD.
A kolobion (kolobon) was a type of wine jar used as a measure; the exact capacity is uncertain. The first line could also mean that Didymos is one of the exactores issuing the order, with the addressee being an unnamed epimeletes.
