† Statement of oil for the servants (paidaria):
To Stephanos the meizon, oil, 12 xestai
To Phokas, oil, 12 xestai
To Basileides, oil, 12 xestai
To Kasach, oil, 12 xestai
[…]
A xestes is a liquid measure of roughly half a litre. The meizon was a steward or headman on an estate or in a village, and paidaria here probably means servants or estate staff rather than children.
