The tablet was first used as a receipt for a man named Apellis, who served as guarantor for a costly transaction involving the purchase of cattle (Side A)
Sometime thereafter, Apellis repurposed the receipt to inscribe a curse against the rival choregoi of a man named Eunikos. (Side B)
The receipt (Side A) was inscribed in the so-called blue alphabet, whereas the curse (Side B) was composed in the red alphabet
