Title Homer, Iliad 1.215-220, 250-266
Author Homer
Summary Ends of Iliad i.215-220 and beginnings of 250-266. At the end of column I, line 217 extends so far into the intercolumnar space that it is clear that this is an amateur copy or school exercise. In the second column the papyrus is warped so that the second half of the lines is raised. All apostrophes are marked, as are dieresis and paragraphi.
Citations P.Oxy. III 537 Descriptum; C. F. Barlett, BASP 48 (2011): 11-14. [MP(3) 589; LDAB 1998; Allen 122; West 122.]
Inv. Id Oxy. 537
Support/Dimensions 1 papyrus fragment; 8.8 x 9 cm
Language Greek
Date 100 CE – 199 CE
More from the period between 100 CE and 199 CE
Note (general) Written along the fibers. There are two kollemata. The back is blank.
Note (general) Written in a combination of a mixed and round style. Barlett (BASP 48) accounts for the discrepancies but essential similarity between cols. 1 and 2 (the latter is less bilinear, shows less consistency in spacing and letter height, etc.) by suggesting that col. 1 was written by a teacher and col. 2 by a student.
