In English machine translation
[…] […]
[…] of surpluses (?)
[…] of Noumenios and Archibios … 12
[…] Akousilaos son of Ptolemaios and his partners.
"Surpluses" (pleonasmata) likely refers to excess amounts collected over the assessed sum. "Partners" (metochoi) is the usual term for associates of a tax contractor.
