13. (3rd hand) Received: Year 19 = 4, Mecheir 26. To - - -[…]. We have granted to Poublios Kanidios and his heirs the annual exportation of 10.000 artabai of wheat and the annual importation of 5.000 Coan amphores of wine without anyone exacting anything in taxes from him or any other expense whatsoever. We have also granted tax exemption on all the land he owns in Egypt on the understanding that he shall not pay any taxes, either to the royal account or to the account of me and my children, in any way in perpetuity. We have also granted that his tenants are exempt from personal liabilities and from taxes without anyone exacting anything from them, not even contributing to the occasional assessments in the nomes or paying for expenses for soldiers or officers. We have also granted that the animals used for plowing and sowing as well as the beasts of burden and the ships used for the transportation (down the Nile) of the wheat are likewise exempt from “personal” liabilities and from taxes and cannot be commandeered. Let it be written to those to whom it may concern, so that knowing it they can act accordingly. Gene/sqwi (2nd hand) (Let it be soe.)
