A census return submitted to the strategos, royal scribe and village scribe by a priest of the god Soknopaios, son of Stotoetis, registering himself and his household for the census of Commodus' 28th year. He lives in his father's house and lists property, including shares of houses and courtyards and his wife's inherited share; it was written at Soknopaiou Nesos in AD 189.
The officials' names are largely restored by the editor. The census of year 28 (188/9) was a 'house-by-house registration' (kat' oikian apographe) held every fourteen years.
