Fragments of a fiscal register from Aphrodito, dating to the 8th century AD, concerning assessments of the 1st and 3rd indictions. It lists column headings for amounts assigned, collected and outstanding, followed by names of individuals and of bodies such as a church, the monastery of Saint Shenoute in the Panopolite pagarchy, and groups of cultivators and bakers.

In English machine translation

[Folio 1?] […] Aphrodito, of the 1st indiction, done in the month of Mecheir 20, of the 3rd indiction [… lines lost …] [Folio ?] from (?), for assignment (diastole), from which collected from them, remainder, as more (?) Arapion Apakoum Kahpsikes Padote Panmes Papse Pareas Patzo Pchoor Tapos Tesmouna through the church of Notinos through the monastery of Saint Shenoute of the pagarchy of Panos self-cultivators (autourgoi) of Tepythis of Saint John bakers of Tbaampe […] from Amma, daughter (?) of Stephanos from outside the district baker of fine bread (?)

The figures belonging to the headings are lost, so only the column headings and names survive. The abbreviations autourg(oi) and kath(arourgos) are interpreted expansions; 'diastole' is a technical term for a fiscal assignment or allocation.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
