This article takes a ‘bottom-up’ approach to the spelling of the genitive case of the word ΙΝΔΙΚΤΙΩΝ as ΙΝΔΙΚΤΙΩΝOΣ or ΙΝΔΙΚΤΙOΝOΣ. It is first shown that the editors of documentary papyri supplement this term in abbreviations and lacunae mostly with the omicron spelling. Chronological quantitative analysis shows that this is also the spelling that is used by ancient writers in contemporary documents. The conventional spelling in documentary papyri between the fourth and eighth centuries in Egypt may thus have differed from what is prescribed in literary sources.
