Palaeographic Description
Written in a rapid but clear semi-cursive with carefully formed letters. The text consists of a list laid out as a column with one object in each line. Each object is followed by a numeral and a dash. There remain on the left traces of a preceding column, in the form of dashes similar to those which in the part extant part follow the numerals, and also the end of a line: ]n td-. Six objects grouped together as silverware have been separated from the preceding objects with a paragraphus. In order to avod any misunderstanding of the quality of the last of these articles, the pepper dish, a second person has added the information that this too is of silver. This second hand has also added what seems to be a proper name in the genitive (l. 22). The document, however, was folded before these letters had dried, and there is consequently a blur which makes reading difficult. If we may infer from the this fact that the list ends with l. 21, then the last line may well be the name of the late owner added by a scribe as a memorandum.
