Commentary
Paci in Marengo-Paci, 1998 Marengo, S.M., Paci, G., 1998, Nuovi frammenti dei conti dei damiurghi, in E. Catani, S.M. Marengo (eds.), La Cirenaica in età antica: atti del Convegno internazionale di studi, Macerata, 18-20 Maggio 1995, Ichnia1, Pisa-Roma, 373-392 - see in bibliography , pp. 388-392 n. 3, pointed at similiarities of lettering and layout with IGCyr013000, but rightly restrained from assembling both inscriptions.
At line 3 the price of grapes is given with the acrophonic pi for πέντε usual in Attica and not with the local numeral. For a similar exception, see IGCyr011800, line 9.
The gap at the beginning of line 4 should host a product which it is hazardous to restore.
