An account listing sums of gold solidi reckoned 'less' a number of carats, followed by a tally of wine jars (spathia) held in the storehouse of Ales and in stores belonging to a bishop, with totals of wheat and barley. It dates to the 7th century AD.
Spathia are small wine jars typical of late antique accounts; amounts of solidi 'less carats' reflect payment in coin of reduced weight. The ordinal entries (first, second, third) probably refer to separate store-rooms or deliveries.
