List of donkey-drivers
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 →
An ostracon listing eleven men, mostly with their fathers' names, each followed by the figure 1. It is catalogued as a list of donkey-drivers and probably comes from Karanis in the Fayum, early 4th century AD.
The text itself does not say these men were donkey-drivers; that identification comes from the catalogue description. The figure 1 after each name probably counts a donkey or a unit owed by each man.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as List of Donkey-Drivers). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
