Heading of a register of recipients from the Poimenike tribe TM 45244Oxyrhynchos

Opening of a register submitted by Aurelius […], phylarch (tribe official) of the Poimenike tribe at Oxyrhynchus, listing men who had been individually scrutinized and were eligible as recipients, apparently of the grain dole. Only the heading and the start of the first entry survive.

In English machine translation

Much of the heading is restored from parallel Oxyrhynchus grain-dole documents, so the exact wording is uncertain. A phylarch was the official responsible for a tribe (phyle), one of the civic divisions of the city.

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