List of carpenter's tools TM 28729Arsinoites (?)II

The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →

A short list of tools, including an adze, a saw, a drill, a borer, a small bag and a small chisel, written on the back of a papyrus. It dates to the 2nd century AD and probably comes from the Arsinoite nome (Fayum).

In English machine translation

Adze […] small saw drill borer (?) […] small sack small chisel

The overall record also mentions loaves, which presumably appear on the other side; this side lists only tools. The word read as 'borer' (paratrypetes) is partly restored and uncertain.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Brote und Werkzeuge). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
