By
K.A. Worp 

The only aim of this survey is to provide a collection of editions of mummy labels from Graeco-Roman Egypt inscribed with texts in Greek and / or Demotic (including a few texts in late- Hieratic). These short texts (almost 3000 items, mostly written on wood) are dispersed now all over the world and incorporated into a great many collections; in course of time many (but not yet all) of them have been published in a wide variety of editions. The survey1 consists of two main sections, viz.: ─ (I.a) A list of Greek and bilingual texts published in various major special editions of a collection (in particular T.BM Arlt and T.Mom.Louvre), in other special corpora of such mummy labels (S.P. Vleeming’s Short Texts, vol. 2, and B. Boyaval’s Corpus des Étiquettes de Momie Grecques [below: C.E.M.G.) or in various other text editions of papyri (in particular the Greek Sammelbuch) and in various journals. The list was compiled from data collected in Trismegistos (see ) and the HGV (see ) while searching in these data bases for ‘material = wood’.

─ (I.b) A list of mummy label texts in Demotic and late Hieratic compiled from
─ (I.b) A list of mummy label texts in Demotic and late Hieratic compiled from Trismegistos / DAHT (see ).
─ (II) A list of locations of collections of various mummy labels listed in the first section. The list is arranged alphabetically according to modern toponym.  ─ (II) A list of locations of collections of various mummy labels listed in the first section.

Nathan Carlig,  
Homère, Iliade, XVI, 45–56 Un nouveau papyrus homérique conservé à la Bibliothèque nationale de France: P.ParisBnF inv. Suppl. gr. 1385.1 (4) Pages 193–200, 

—Abstract

This article presents an edition of an unpublished Homeric fragment in Paris containing Homer, Iliad, XVI, 45-56. Observations on its content, form and layout, and an investigation of the other papyri of Iliad XVI show that the Paris fragment belonged to the same family as P.Harr. I 122.

José-Antonio Fernández Delgado,
A very peculiar Homeric paraphrase (P.Erl. 5, inv. 3, recto), Pages 201–208 

—Abstract

P.Erl. 5 (inv. 3), recto (LDAB 1567 = MP3 1169) contains a paraphrase of part of the argument between Zeus and Hera at the end of Book I of the Iliad (v. 528-48). It is characterized by its similarity to the ‘grammatical’ rather than ‘rhetorical’ type of paraphrase, although it cannot be classified as purely grammatical either.

Fausto Montana,
 Ettore, Cebrione e il tethrippon P.Oxy. 76.5095, fr. 1 →, rr. 10–11, commento a Il. 12.91, 209–215

—Abstract

The word τέθριππον in l. 11 of this commentary on part of Book 12 of the Iliad (MP3 1194.01; 5th/6th century AD) allows a reconstruction of the meaning of the annotation, and of the related text, that fits well with the corresponding scholium exegeticum 12.91-92, and provides further confirmation of the strong affinity between the commentary and this class of medieval scholia.

Wolfgang Luppe
Zur Datierung von Euripides’ Μήδεια-Dramen

—Abstract

Aristophanes of Byzantium’s hypothesis of the preserved Mήδεια of Euripides awards Sophocles second place in 431 BC, but in the new report of P.Oxy. 5093 Sophocles was the winner with Τηρεύς. This difference is explicable if the known hypothesis belongs to the first Μήδεια. If that is the case, the preserved Μήδεια must have been performed later than 431.

Marco Perale
P.Oxy. LXIV 4410. A Comic Adespoton Re-examined

—Abstract

New readings in P.Oxy. LXIV 4410 fr. 2.1 and 2.5 suggest a possible reference to a class of intellectuals and a messenger involved in the action of the play.

Ioannis Polemis / Grace Ioannidou
῾Αϰλοῦται γὰρ ὁ ἄνθρωπος τῶι κόσμωι: A Note on the Proemium to the Second Book of Artemidorus’ Geographoumena

—Abstract

This article discusses apparent resonances of a stoic ‘topos’ in the text of the Artemidorus papyrus. Regardless of the question of the authenticity of the text, an examination of the ideas expressed in it remains a challenging philological task.

Ein ptolemäisches Gesetz zum Handel mit importiertem Wein (P.UB Trier S 188-61)

—Abstract

Editio princeps of a Ptolemaic papyrus containing a hitherto unknown customs law about imported wine, targetting the trade and transportation of undeclared wine. The fragment possibly belongs to the so called „Revenue Laws“.

Sandra Scheuble-Reiter
Drei Trierer Papyri zum ptolemäischen Militär

—Abstract

This text contains a record of the livestock of several persons, probably all soldiers. The document can be dated to the second half of the third century BC and was presumably drawn up in a local government office for the collection of taxes like the salt tax.

What Is a τρυϲινον? A Fresh Look at P.Oxy. XIV 1674

—Abstract

This article presents a new transcription of the word τρυϲινον in P.Oxy. XIV 1674.5 based on a recent autopsy, a word which Grenfell and Hunt left untranslated in their edition due to its being unattested in the Greek language. The word is most likely a misspelling of a common Greek word meaning “fire drill”, and would thus fit well within the agricultural context of the letter. An image of P.Oxy. XIV 1674 is published here for the first time.

The Berlin ‘Chronicle’ (P.Berol. inv. 13296): A New Edition of the Earliest Extant Late Antique Consularia

—Abstract

P.Berol. inv. 13296, a fragmentary leaf of an illustrated parchment codex, contains an early Greek translation of consularia composed from two independent Latin texts: a consular list that is related to the fasti that underlie the chronicle of Prosper and the Consularia Italica; and historical entries from an early recension of the Descriptio consulum. This article studies the place of the parchment in these traditions and presents a new edition of and full commentary on the text.

Todd M. Hickey
The workers and the vineyard (P.Lond. inv. 2238)

—Abstract

Publication of a Byzantine letter from the Oxyrhynchite nome that concerns work on an embankment for a new vineyard. The letter comes from a “large estate” milieu.

Greek Astronomical Tables in the Papyrus Carlsberg Collection (with associated fragments from other collections)

—Abstract

The article includes A) an introduction on the Greek and Demotic astronomical papyri from the Papyrus Carlsberg Collection in Copenhagen, their provenance and relation to the Tebtunis Temple Library; B) a commented edition of five Greek astronomical tables from the Copenhagen Collection, with associated fragments from the Vitelli Institute in Florence and the Berlin Papyrussammlung.

Jean-Luc Fournet / Tonio Sebastian Richter
Une misthôsis copte d’Aphrodité (P.Lond. inv. 2849): le plus ancien acte notarié en copte?

—Abstract

Edition of a Coptic lease contract from the British Library (P.Lond. inv. 2849) which is likely to belong to the Dioscorus archive (6th century AD) and is probably the earliest known Coptic deed drawn up by a notary

Tonio Sebastian Richter
O.Louvre AF 12678: Ein koptischer Mietvertrag zwischen Muslimen?

—Abstract

Edition of an 8th century Coptic rental agreement from the Louvre collection, presumably originating from Elephantine. The lessee and perhaps the lessor too seem to be converts to Islam.

New article about the Artmidorus papyrus: Botte da orbi per un papiro

di Angiola Codacci Pisanelli
L'Espresso, 1 aprile, 2013

Un bellissimo documento geografico con scritte e disegni. Forse risalente all'antico Egitto, forse invece fatto da un falsario dell'800. Da sette anni gli studiosi litigano sulla sua autenticità. E lo spettacolo continua.

Greek became the administrative language in Egypt in the third century BCE. It was also the native language of immigrants from the Greek world, a group numerically much smaller than the native Egyptians. A great number of Greek texts written on papyrus sheets and rolls, as well as potsherds, survive from Hellenistic and Roman Egypt. What does this direct evidence tell us about the development of the Greek language and its 'common form', koine? How can we use the written corpus to decipher who spoke Greek, how it was spoken, and who was literate? Many of the administrative documents were in fact written by bilingual, native Egyptian, officials. Some other texts, like private letters, were sometimes written by scribes. How do we tell apart the language of the scribe from the language of the original author of the text? Do they differ from one another, and if so, how?
The linguistic study of Greek papyri has been experiencing a recent revival. The material can provide answers to many questions concerning the development and the use of Greek in Egypt, especially if we also develop new digital research tools. I will present one such project in its infancy.

Il volume riunisce gli atti del secondo dei tre convegni che gli editori del Papiro di Artemidoro hanno organizzato, a partire dal 2008, con l’intento di stimolare il dibattito scientifico su quel reperto straordinariamente complesso e di agevolare la soluzione dei tanti quesiti rimasti aperti anche dopo l’uscita dell’editio princeps del rotolo e dei successivi studi dedicati a questo o a quell’aspetto di esso. Il primo dei colloqui era stato dedicato al testo serbato dal papiro ed al contesto culturale in cui il manufatto fu prodotto. Il secondo, svoltosi a Roma il 27 novembre del 2009, ha invece trattato degli apporti che il papiro ha fornito alla conoscenza della geografia e della cartografia antica. Nel volume, quindi, abbiamo contributi che analizzano la descrizione della penisola iberica tracciata da Artemidoro e che studiano la toponomastica presente sul papiro, altri che indagano i rapporti intercorrenti fra Artemidoro e geografia lui successivi, come Strabone e Tolomeo, altri ancora che si soffermano sulla mappa da cui è occupato un ampio tratto del rotolo.
Ai testi delle relazioni presentate al convegno segue un’appendice con tre saggi, che discutono argomentazioni recentemente addotte per porre in dubbio l’autenticità del papiro e ne confutano la fondatezza.
