Rates are in artabas of wheat per aroura, expressed as sums of unit fractions; some fraction readings and totals are uncertain and do not always agree with the itemized figures. The provenance is only tentatively Arsinoite despite publication among Oxyrhynchus papyri.

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