Commentary
The reduced dimensions of the preserved fragment and the display of the few preserved products allow to consider that this account was organised in two columns, like some others originally dated in the second century BC Rosamilia 2016 has shown that the change from silver standard to bronze standard took place in Cyrenaica about 220 BC and he was also able (Rosamilia 2017) to place this account before 180 BC, together with IGCyr0140002, IGCyr0143002 and IGCyr0146002. One other common point for this group is the use of the abbreviated form of some products names.
