Notes

The text is fragmentary, and some words or quantities are uncertain or incomplete. The document appears to be a letter or requisition list, detailing agricultural products and provisions. The term "indiction" (ἰνδικτίωνος) refers to a 15-year taxation cycle used in late antiquity, helping date the document historically.
