Two poems VIth Century ADAphrodites kome (Antaiopolites)
Description
Two poems in dactylic hexametres, written on palimpsest. They are encomia in honour of a dux of the Thebaid, perhaps Callinikos. An old contract (?) has been almost everywhere scratched out, to make a clean space. The letters which remain visible of the of the original text intersect those of the new one - which, together with the bad state of preservation of the papyrus, make a reading often very uncertain. Belongs to the archive of Dioscoros.
