Content
List of contributions, mainly in money, made (or to be made) by the president and other members of a guild of Harpokrates (for which see also P.Mich. II, 127, col. I, l. 30); this was clearly intended as an appendix to an ordinance passed by the guild, the body of which was left to be written in later by a clerk of the grapheion. In the list, the names of the members of the association (some of them left blank or washed out) are divided in three groups of five, probably arranged in the order in which they took their seats at the banquet tables.
