Le Registre fiscal edite et commente dans ce livre note tous les versements, en or et en cuivre, encaisses par le Tresor du village d’Aphrodito en Basse-Thebaide durant l’annee 525/526, ainsi que la repartition des recettes entre la Caisse centrale et les divers beneficiaires designes par l’administration. Document des plus banals pour son epoque, il est aujourd’hui unique par son etat de conservation et par le contexte documentaire nourri qui eclaire et enrichit ses donnees propres. Le commentaire explore les domaines, parfois tres vastes, ou les donnees du Registre et du dossier constitue autour de lui remettent en cause les idees recues. Document comptable, le Registre fournit pour la premiere fois la clef des rapports reels entre les deux especes, l’or et le cuivre, qui dominent la circulation monetaire dans l’Antiquite tardive. Une etude des salaires et des rations militaires, auxquels Aphrodito contribue, en donne une image singulierement concrete, quant aux modalites de paiement mais aussi aux quantites consommees par les soldats. Les donnees relatives a la fiscalite en ble inspirent une enquete sur l’approvisionnement de la capitale, Constantinople, et jettent une lumiere inattendue sur le nombre de victimes de la grande peste de 542. Ce village egyptien recule s’avere un echantillon fidele de la societe imperiale, un microcosme ou les problemes parmi les plus debattus de l’histoire economique et sociale du Bas-Empire ont laisse leur empreinte et peut-etre la clef de leur solution.
