An account of building materials, mainly lime measured in artabas and baked bricks in units called stoillaria, issued through a certain Georgios for various projects.

It dates to the 7th century AD and comes from the Hermopolite nome.

In English machine translation

[recto] Account of lime as follows: Through Georgios, on account of Saints Kosmas and Damianos, 5 artabas and likewise of marble […] 2 Through the same, on account of the well of your house, lime 2 artabas Through the same, on account of the window (?) of the great pool, lime 2 artabas Through the same, on account of the bath of the lord Ioannes, lime 4 artabas For […] (?) of the lord Ioannes, lime 2 artabas (deleted: For the bath of the praetorium, lime 4 artabas) [verso] Pauni 20, on account of the salt-works (?), baked bricks, 4 stoillaria Mesore 6, on account of the bath of the praetorium, 30 stoillaria 9, and likewise 13 stoillaria Phaophi 1, on account of the […] of the great entrance (?), baked bricks, 1 stoillarion

The stoillarion is an otherwise poorly understood unit or load for bricks. Several words (the marble entry, the phrase about Ioannes' vineyard (?), and the object at the great entrance) are unclear in the original.
