Summary of Content receipt of Antonios Malchaios, head of the harbour guard of Syene for harbour fees (enhormion) for cargoes made during the months Thoth to Choiak of year 17(?) or Trajan. Year incertain.
Location of Composition Aswan / Syene Upper Egypt, 1st nome Egypt (Certainty: high)
Comments on Text corr.: date of year 1 must be wrong. Wilcken conjectured year 11. But the collector is attested between year 18 of Trajan til year 4 of Hadrian. I propose to read year 17, since the titulature has not Aristos.
