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).;Traces of at least two marginal notes appear on the left of col. 53; they seem to have been in the same hand as the main text, and were nearly completely erased; the one on the left of l. 1144-1146, which was unfortunately cut when the papyrus was housed in glass, might have continued under the kollesis.;The column numbers of cols. 53-54 seem to have been corrected.
