Description

This text is on the verso of P.Oxy.1380, and in much better condition. It contains an analogous text in honour of a deity whose worship in Roman times to some extent connects through Hermes with that of Isis, namely Imouthes, the Egyptian Imhotep, identified by the Greeks with Asclepius the god of medicine.
