A fragmentary ostracon account from Elephantine listing several individuals, apparently with amounts in pounds (litrai) against each name. It dates to the 5th or 6th century AD.

In English machine translation

Peperis: […] pounds Tourosis: […] pounds Panouth son of Moros: […] pounds Pachnoubis son of Hor[…] […] […] Poonsis […]

The first entry, Peperi, could also be read as the word for pepper, but in a list of names it is likely a personal name. The commodity measured in pounds is not stated.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Compte en livres). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
