An account of grain shipped from the harbour of Thmoiamounis on two boats, those of Pieous and of Nonna, listing quantities of unclean and clean wheat from Thmoiamounis, Machophis and other places. It dates to the 5th century AD and comes from Oxyrhynchus.
"Unclean" (rhyparos) wheat is grain not yet cleaned of chaff and dirt; the kankellon was an official measure. Thmoiamounis lay in the Herakleopolite nome, though the papyrus was found at Oxyrhynchus.
