The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →

A short cash account from the Apollonopolite nome. It starts from a sum of 62 solidi, records two rounds of spending, and works out the balance each time, ending with 41 solidi.

In English machine translation

Account of the 62 solidi, of which spent: 11 2/3 solidi; remainder: 50 1/3 solidi. Account of the 50 1/3 solidi, of which spent: 9 1/3 solidi; remainder: 41 solidi.

The solidus (nomisma) was the standard gold coin of the late Roman and early Islamic period. The arithmetic checks: 62 minus 11 2/3 leaves 50 1/3, and 50 1/3 minus 9 1/3 leaves 41.

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