Introduction
Two medical recipes (MPER XIII 1). Papyrus strip (3.8x11 cm), possibly complete, written against the fibers. Palimpsest: traces of a drawing underneath, possibly a head. The ingredients are listed with the respective dosage. We are likely dealing with two alternative versions of a same medicament, separated from each other by a vacat. Palaeographically dated to 1st-3rd cent. AD.
(This papyrus has been digitally edited by Anna Monte as part of the Project "DIGMEDTEXT - Online Humanities Scholarship: A Digital Medical Library based on Ancient Texts" (ERC-AdG-2013, Grant Agreement no. 339828) funded by the European Research Council at the University of Parma (Principal Investigator: Prof. Isabella Andorlini). The digital edition is mostly based on the previous editions (ed.pr. = K.A. Worp, P.Vind.Worp 20; ed.alt. = H. Harrauer - P.J. Sijpesteijn, MPER NS XIII 1). Revised by Nicola Reggiani in the framework of the PRIN 2017 Project "Greek and Latin Literary Papyri from Graeco-Roman and Late Antique Fayum (4th BC – 7th AD): Texts, Contexts, Readers" funded by the Italian Ministry of Research (P.I.
