Fragmentary monthly report of the granary officials (sitologoi) of Karanis in the Arsinoite nome, listing wheat measured into the public granary during the month, with surcharges and totals. It is dated in the reign of Caracalla, around AD 216.

The diaphoron is a surcharge levied on top of the grain dues; the philanthropon here is an additional 'gratuity' amount of wheat. Many figures are restored.
