A receipt issued to villagers of Temseu Moron in the Hermopolite nome for a payment of 30 carats (by the Hermopolis standard) toward public taxes, apparently as an advance payment, in a sixth indiction. It bears acknowledgements from the priest Ioannes son of Phoibammon and several villagers, and was written by Phoibammon.
