| description | The focus of this article lies on the ostraca from the temple complexes of Soknopaiou
Nesos in the Fayum and Hut-Repit in Middle Egypt written in Demotic, a cursive writing
system used from the seventh century BCE to the fifth century CE. The two roughly
contemporary sets of ostraca provide the opportunity to compare the use of Demotic
ostraca for different text forms and text types and the role of potsherds versus other
writing materials in the administrative, economic, and cultic life of Egyptian provincial
temples in the late Ptolemaic to early Roman period. |
