PN [...by the hands of (?)]Tanḥumto year 12, loads of straw: 6which are not prepared/ready (?)

Most of the first line is unclear, but the recurrence of the name Tanḥum, seen in mare0014, allow to assume that also in this case the line started with a name and that it read עליד תנחום "by the hands of Tanḥum. In line 3 the dalet is unclear, and might be read as a yod or a resh. If we read מעתדן, the meaning may be: "to be prepared."
