A short ostracon listing seven men, presumably donkey-drivers, with a total of 26 donkeys. It probably comes from Karanis in the Fayum and dates to the late 3rd or early 4th century AD.
The total of 26 refers to donkeys, not to the seven men named, so each driver presumably supplied several animals.
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.
