/. 27. The list of fish corresponds closely in
its proportions with the payment of oil: the
detailed numbers recorded in 11. 27 and 28 of
the 3rd entry amount to 1358, leaving 242
to be accounted for out of the total of 1600.
This deficit of 242 is evidently to be made up
of the missing units of the 12*, together with
two contributions of about 120 each to be
inserted in the gap. We thus obtain 15
entries, as in the case of the oil. It is there-
fore certain that these entries are connected.
If the payments of oil were for catching and
curing fish, then in 1. 22 (2nd entry) we have
the details of the amounts set aside as tax
from each clay's take by some official, and in
11. 27, 28 (3rd entry) the similar amounts from
the official entitled the chief of the Moeris
district.
