A short order to pay, asking the addressee to give Andreas son of Abraamios 11 double jars of wine, apparently for reed work, and to hand him a document concerning the hamlets. It dates to the 5th or 6th century AD.

In English machine translation

Please give to Andreas son of Abraamios 11 diplas of wine, eleven, 11 diplas, and he will make the reed-work (?), which hand over to Eucharis from Sambas. And give him the little document of the hamlets which I gave you. Isaias is said to be the son of Chairemon.

A dipla (diplon) is a 'double' wine jar, a common late antique measure. The sense of the clause about the kalamin (reed, perhaps reed-work or a reed bed) and Eucharis is unclear.
