An ostracon listing ten men, probably donkey-drivers, each with one donkey, followed by a total. It dates to the late 3rd century AD and probably comes from Karanis in the Fayum.
Ten names remain after the scribe deleted one entry, matching the total of 10. The stray numeral 3 before the total appears to be a scribal error.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as List of Donkey-Drivers). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
