Receipt for gold paid by Aphrodite villagers for the wheat canon TM 36791Antinoopolis (?)540 - 541 (?)

A receipt recording that the villagers of Aphrodite, through their village headmen, paid one gold solidus less two carats to a tax receiver, probably named Ioannes, as the money equivalent of the wheat tax (canon) of the fourth indiction. It probably dates to AD 540-541.

In English machine translation

The receiver's name Ioannes and several formulaic phrases are editorial restorations modelled on parallel receipts. The canon was the annual tax assessment, here paid in gold rather than in grain.
