Title Tax Roll
Author Unknown tax-collector (Sarapion, son of Sokrates?)
Summary Tax register, recording the daily collection of money taxes in the village of Karanis; the name of each tax-payer paying the poll-tax is cross-referenced with a page of another register, where taxpayers were listed geographically
Citations Youtie HC, PMich IV/1, 225, col. [. . .] (181?) (l. 3380-3412), 1936 -- BL III, 114 (l. 3386). - This fragment was assigned by the editors to the later part of the roll (after col. 201), but the similiraty of damage between it and col. 182 (note in part. the two holes on the upper left) indicate that they were very close to each other; as col. 182 is at the beginning of a new sheet, the present fragment has a good chance to be the end of the preceding sheet, bearing col. [181], recording payments made in early to mid Phaophi of year 15. (PH)
