Note (general) Due to the size of this tax roll (P.Mich. IV/1, 225 + IV/2, 358), its content has been divided in the present database into several cards (one for each column).;The pattern of damage of the P.Cair. inv. JdE 57187 (right side of col. 161) and of P.Mich. inv. 4172, col. 162, is very similar and shows that these two successive sheets were not glued to each other at the time the damage occurred, if ever.
