A short list of personal names written on an ostracon, including Enok, Nilos, Thermouthis, Taol, Melas and Papeeis. It dates to the 3rd century AD and probably comes from Karanis in the Fayum.
The purpose of the list is uncertain; the museum description suggests it may record liturgical workers. Several names, such as Thermouthis and Taol, are usually female, and Enok is a Semitic name (Enoch).
