Introduction

Medical recipes. The fragment (6 x 8 cm) is broken at the top and on the left side. The recto contains a single column of 7 lines with the text of two recipes, separated by horizontal strokes: ll. 1-2 contain the very end of the first recipe, while ll. 3-13 preserve more substantial remains of a second remedy against dull-white leprosy. Verso is blank. The handwriting is a quite refined, non-cursive commercial hand, dating back to the 2nd cent. AD.
