A short order from Kyrakos instructing Theon to issue eight jars of wine to Cornelius and his companions. It belongs to a group of texts connected with chariot racing at Oxyrhynchus in the 4th century AD.
The text is a delivery order (a common type of short instruction to release goods), here from an archive related to the circus factions of Oxyrhynchus. The name Kyrakos is a variant spelling of Kyriakos.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as New texts from the Oxyrhynchus racing archive). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
