Metadata

Date: no information yet, broad range BC 799 - AD 799?

Provenance: Egypt - Egypt (N/AThe region ca. 3rd cent. BC - AegyptusThe Roman provincia or regio ca. 2nd cent. AD) [found & written]

Language/script: Hieroglyphic

Material: papyrus

Content (beta!): A cursive hieroglyphic fragment from the New Kingdom. It appears to be a section of an instruction formula from one of the Book of the Dead spells. However, there is not enough text preserved to make a clear attribution, as the content is quite general and applies to several spells. A name of an owner is unfortunately not preserved. Identification by Ann-Katrin Gill (Oxford) via private correspondence with Nicholas Wagner (Spring 2020).
