English Translation

"I have measured at the threshing floors of Selilaeus, from the first harvest (of the year) of the lord Domitian Caesar, in the month of Caesareios:
On the 30th, Eudaimon, elder son of Hermaios, wheat measured by the receiving standard: two hundred sixteen artabas.
(Total) wheat measured by the receiving standard: 216 artabas.
And during the five epagomenal days,
On the first day of the month, the same (person) another twenty-two and a half and a quarter artabas of wheat by the receiving standard.
Total for the two days: two hundred thirty-eight and a half and a quarter artabas.
I, Musaios, have recorded wheat by the receiving standard: two hundred thirty-eight and a half and a quarter artabas.
(Total) wheat measured by the receiving standard: 238 ¾ artabas."
