Palaeographic Description
One scribe (m. 1) drew up the list of names in a practised and legible hand, leaving approximately a centimeter between the entries ; a second scribe (m. 2), writing a very fast hand and using much darker ink, inserted several names in column two (7-8, 11-12, 15) and made notes in the margin before a number of names (4, 5, 16, 24, 30, 31). An oblique check mark before the names which were written by the first scribe suggests that the text was verified against an earlier copy or against a roll of census returns. the darkness of the ink emplyed shows that the second scribe was responsible for the checking process. The verso of the papyrus is blank. The principal hand of this papyrus is radically different from that in P.Harris 72 and P.Princ. III 123, which are in the same hand.
