Day account of deliveries in kind
The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →
A short account on an ostracon listing personal names with quantities, apparently deliveries in kind, with subtotals. It probably comes from Karanis in the Arsinoite nome and dates to the 2nd or 1st century BC.
The commodity and unit are not stated; the initial 30 and the later 1 may be day numbers, as the account is described as a day account. Names are written with spelling errors (Antipatos for Antipatros, Doorotheos for Dorotheos).
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Account of deliveries in kind). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
