To Aurelius Origenes, the strategos of Hermopolis,
from Aurelius Paesios, son of Stephanus, mother Ạ ̣ ̣ ̣ ̣
and Silvanus Pacymius, mother of Helen, both of
the village leaders of the village of Senombos. We
announce and declare the following written
laborers to be freed to the site at Alabastrine
for the exchange of those sent there before,
laborers who are suitable and capable for our
needs and for all those from the village in
solidarity. There are: Aurelii
Eutis, son of Silvanus
[I ̣ ̣ ̣ ̣]
T(?)]asytios,
as we guarantee and will present them without
blame, fulfilling their required labor needs and
not being left behind until the command comes
or until the exchange. But if they are delayed
and we do not present ourselves, we will bear
the responsibility for them.
And when questioned, we confessed.
(In the year)

[the Augusti and in the year] ninth of our lords
Constantius and Maximian, the most illustrious

English Translation

To Aurelius Origenes, strategos of Hermopolis,
from Aurelii Paesios, son of Stephanos, whose mother is A...,
and Silvanus Pachymios, whose mother is Helen, both village heads (komarchs) of the village Senombo.
We present and report the following listed workers who are to depart for the alabaster quarry,
as replacements for the workers previously sent there,
being suitable and fit, at our own risk and that of all the villagers collectively.
They are: Aurelii Eutis, son of Silvanus, and [unclear name] son of Tasytius,
whom we guarantee and will present blamelessly,
fulfilling the assigned labor requirement and not abandoning their post there until ordered or replaced.
If they fail and we do not present them ourselves, we will bear responsibility for them.
And upon being questioned, we have agreed.
In the 17th and 16th years of our lords Diocletian and Maximian, Augusti,
and in the 9th year of our lords Constantius and Maximian, most noble Caesars,
during the consulship of Postumius Titianus and Virius Nepotianus.
Month Mesore [date unclear].
We have submitted this. I, Aurelius Horion, wrote on behalf of them, who declared they do not know letters.
