• Resumen

  • Publication of five Greek papyri from the village of Memnonia near Thebes (modern Medinet Habu, Coptic Djeme) housed in the British Library, and dating from the fifth and sixth centuries, a period comparatively poorly documented at Memnonia. The documents are contracts, mostly of sale, and enlarge our small body of evidence for the legal formulary, toponymy, and onomastics of this area in this period. No. 4 is a sale by an anchorite and two relatives of a building (or part of a building) designated by the novel Coptic word ptech.
