Notes on the Translation

This document appears to be a fragmentary administrative record from Roman Egypt, specifically a grain receipt or accounting document addressed to a local official (strategos). It mentions grain measurements (artabas), the public granary, and references the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius Severus Antoninus (Caracalla), who held titles such as Parthicus, Britannicus, Germanicus, and Augustus. The text is incomplete and damaged, thus the translation includes several uncertainties and gaps.
