A tax receipt recording that Marcus Valerius Montanus paid sums to Philippos and his associates, former nomarchs of the Arsinoite nome, through their agent Heron. The payment concerns the village of Philadelphia and mentions Gaius Hostilius Nepos; it is dated 11 May 182.
Several lines are illegible, so the exact nature of the payment and the role of Gaius Hostilius Nepos are unclear. The nomarchs here were tax-collecting officials responsible for certain levies.
