A fragmentary record of legal proceedings from Oxyrhynchos, AD 5th-6th century, apparently headed as an order or docket of the advocate (scholastikos) Euangelos concerning persons liable to account. It lists statements of claim by Philoxenos, an imperial agent (magistrianus), Theon, and Phoibammon, procurator of an illustrious lady, involving villagers and public dues.

A didaskalikon is a written statement of a party's case submitted to a court; hypeuthynoi are persons answerable for liabilities, often tax obligations. The right side of every line is lost, so connections between clauses are uncertain.
