Description	SB XVIII 13913: Account of an οἰκόδομος Account (9.5 x 5.6 cm) of a builder (οἰκόδομος, line 1) recording money payments in talents made by various individuals, such as a Horos διακώνου (line 1–2) and a Tourbon. Θεοδώρου πρ(εσβυτέρου) (line 4, 11–12), is the only one introduced by διά rather than παρὰ; the ed.pr. presumes Theodoros paid on behalf of someone else. He also appears to have been a landowner, since Horos in line 11–12 is described as γεωργός of Theodoros. A first reading by Harold I. Bell had assumed the use of the word βίλλα at the end of line 2, for the latin villa, which is otherwise only attested in P.Lond. II 481, a Latin-Greek glossary. Husson 1985 has reread the word as [κ]έλλας.
