Contents: | On the obverse a litigant, probably a workman, calls upon the scribe 1r and the ATw 2a-m-Ip.t to have his adversary declare under oath to pay for an ox within seven months, under penalty of i.a. a hundred blows. On the reverse a workman brings in a report or complaint on a certain day about some unclear matter involving him being 'in the granary for the second time', the scribe 1r taking away his companion(?) and him coming to complete his 'third commission'. The connection between the texts on the obverse and the reverse remains unclear. |
