Fragment of a register listing landholders with references to sheets (kollemata) of an official roll, land categories (sacred, catoecic, assigned, private) and areas with wheat rates per aroura. It is identified as a register of arrears of land taxes from Theadelphia in the Arsinoite nome, probably from the reign of Antoninus Pius.
