A short order, probably from the 6th or 7th century AD, instructing the baker Abychios to supply five artabas of wheat to a person addressed as 'lord', whose name is lost.
In English machine translation
☧ To my brother Abychios, baker, […]
Provide to the lord […] […]
five artabas of wheat […]
[…] total, 5 artabas of wheat.
'Brother' is a conventional form of address and need not mean a blood relative. The document is a payment order (delegatio) for grain.

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
