A receipt issued by Philoxenos, a wine-steward, acknowledging delivery of 275 double jars of wine from two vine-dressers, Amaeios and Paleous, of the hamlet of Ouesobthis, for the third indiction. It comes from Oxyrhynchus and dates to the 5th or 6th century AD.

In English machine translation

Order (?) of me, Philoxenos, wine-steward: I have received from Amaeios and Paleous, vine-dressers of the hamlet of Ouesobthis, on account of the vintage (?) of the third indiction, 275 double jars of wine, total 275 double jars.

The heading word entagion usually means an order or warrant; here it introduces a receipt. A diplon (double jar) was a standard wine measure in late antique Egypt, and rhysis refers to the wine flow or yield of the vintage.
