The Greek text appears to be a fragmentary inscription or papyrus listing individuals, their patronymics, and distinctive physical marks (scars), possibly for identification purposes. The term "ἐφηβευκώς" (ephebeukos) indicates someone who has completed the ephebate, a period of youth training and civic education in ancient Greek society.
