| Summary: | The oil-workers of a village in the Little Diopolite nome, having previously agreed to supply oils for the ... of the nome capital, agree in the present text to continue and expand their responsibilities in this enterprise. Virtually no details are preserved, but the existence of such an agreement presupposes that the workers involved were organized into some form of corporate unity: see in general M. San Nicolò, Ägyptisches Vereinswesen zur Zeit der Ptolemäer und Römer (2nd ed. Munich 1972 = Münchener Beiträ. ge 2/I + 2/II), with oil-workers' guilds in particular pp. 78-80. The name of the party with whom the agreement was made is lost at the beginning of the text. A eutheniarch would be the obvious guess. The papyrus has been mentioned by John Barns, Prel. Rep. p. 12, and partly transcribed by E. G. Turner, ibid. 17-8; cf. Introd. pp. 2-3. Dark traces which appear above 1. I in the Facsimile Edition plate 3 are not ink. The back is blank |
