description The two papyri edited here, P.Tebt.Suppl. 1432 and PSI inv. D 106, augment the modest corpus of Roman-era Demotic receipts from Tebtunis. The texts can be classified as records of payments for the Temple Tax on Property Transfer, a charge often referred to as the διδραχµία(Σούχου) in scholarly discussions. This impost is attested from the second century BC until the second century AD and seems by and large to be confined to the Fayum, though similar taxes are known from other parts of Egypt. The specifics of this charge have been explained elsewhere and ipso facto there is no need to dwell on the particulars here, save for a brief overview.
