Introduction

This fragment contains the bottoms of two columns, written in medium-sized sloping hand which suggests a date around the middle of the third century.

Commentary

  • 8.

    The apostrophe between the γ and the δ is uncertain, but without it there is more ink than the letters will account for. It is alternatively possible that a mistake was made.

  • 9.

    The preceding πε- of πεφευγότας would have been on the previous line before the break in the papyrus.

  • 11.

    Paragraphos indicates the end of a sentence after Τεγεητέων

  • 12.

    βασιλεύοντος does not appear on the papyrus but is present in MSS. Its absence on the papyrus perhaps follows epigraphic dating conventions.

  • 16.

    The purpose of the stop is to disconnect πρὸς Τεγεή from the preceding participle.

  • 18.

    Paragraphos indicates end of a sentence after -ον Middot may indicate end of the section after -ον

  • 21.

    [α]πάντων is demanded by the spacing.

  • 23.

    The superfluous α was canceled by a long vertical stroke and by an overwritten dot. The remaining -κτοι of ἀπρόσμικτοι would have been produced on the following page.
