A list of payments in kind of wheat and lentils, measured in artabas, to about twenty named individuals, several identified by family relationship, origin (Alexandria, Constantinople) or title such as cupbearer or tribune. It dates to the 5th or 6th century AD and probably comes from the Herakleopolite nome.

Several names may be read as patronymics or as two individuals; 'Vestiarites' may denote a member of the imperial wardrobe guard rather than a surname. Many lentil figures are lost, and at least 17 further lines are missing.
