Fragment of a Ptolemaic land register from the Herakleopolite nome listing plots, holders such as Sarapion son of Diophanes and Nikoboule, cultivators, crops and areas in arouras. It notes cleruchic holdings, vineyards liable to the sixth and money rents to the king, and refers to the survey of year 35.
