Receipts for arithmetikon katoikon and another tax paid for Tapasis TM 9793Arsinoites159 - 160

Two tax receipts written on the same document from the Arsinoite nome, recording payments by or for a woman named Tapasis to the collectors of money taxes. The first, dated AD 159/160, is for the arithmetikon katoikon (a tax on settlers' land); the second, dated AD 163/164, concerns arrears of the third year and another tax.

In English machine translation

The two receipts carry different dates (year 23 of Antoninus Pius and year 4 of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus). The arithmetikon katoikon was a money tax levied on katoikic (settler) land, and the 'additional charges' were surcharges paid alongside the tax.
