Hands | For a general description of the palaeography, see electronic version of 21 a-m. After l. 1 a space of one line was left blank in which are two wingshaped signs to mark the end of one recipe and the beginning of another. The first sign was extruded into the margin, and it is likely that one or two further signs have been lost in the missing portion of the papyrus. Lines 1-5 are written in the first hand (scribe) with a left margin of approximately 2.5 cm.; lines 6-10 are in the second hand. The writer (the owner) left no space betweenhis first line and the preceding text, but he extruded his lines 1.5 cm. into the margin. |
