A short receipt in which Theodosios, a tax collector, acknowledges receiving one gold keration from a noblewoman whose name begins Trasi[…], connected with Georgios. The payment was made on account of the payment order (entagion) of a man named Paulos.
An entagion was an official order or assessment for payment; the apaitetes was the collector who exacted it. The recipient's name and her exact relation to Georgios are lost in the damaged opening.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Receipt issued by Theodosius the Apaitetes). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
