DCLP Transcription [xml]

Introduction

Medical prose. Fragment (5 x 11 cm) of a papyrus roll, preserving on the recto the top-left portion of a single column of writing: only the initial part of 13 lines survives; top margin is 1 cm, left margin 0.8 cm. On the verso, scanty traces of ink cursively written. The brevity and the lacunosity of this fragment make the positive determination of its meaning difficult, but it seems to be part of a medical treatise. The text is copied in a typical round book-hand of the 2nd cent. AD.
