Pap. CCLVII. CENSUS-ROLL, containing list of names, with the father and mother of each individual, his age, and sometimes his occupation. The names are arranged by households, only males being included in the list, and the ages range between 14 and 60. Both beginning and end of the roll are lost, and with them the statement of the place and date; but from Pap. CCLIX. it appears that it belongs to the 14th year of Domitian [= A.D. 94 - 95], and is a revision of the census for the year., based on the last fourteen-yearly census, supplemented by subsequent returns of births and deaths. Parts of nine columns are preserved, the number of names in each (where ascertainable) varying between 38 and 24. 13 1/2 in. x 5 ft. 8 1/2 in. Written on good papyrus in a small, neat, slightly cursive uncial, with some abbreviations. There is a little demotic writing on the , apparently an accompt.
