Summary
The texts are listed in the order followed by the BL rather than the Checklist, as the Checklist lists corpora (e.g. CPJ) separately. I have listed the measurements of the papyrus, the style of writing and other peculiarities of the text, the date, the provenance, details of other editions and of plates or photographs. I have chosen to designate the texts by either their most comprehensive or most recent papyrological edition. I have only included BL references that offer new readings or textual suggestions to the designated edition. The texts are dated by the style of their handwriting, as given by the editors. I have listed separate fragments that form part of the same text under the same entry.
P.ABERD. 117
The papyrus is 2 × 2.8 cm and 6.7 × 2.9 cm and is written in a ‘calligraphic hand’ according to the editio princeps.
Date: First century ad.
Provenance: Unknown.
Text: Published in 1939 as P.Aberd. 117. Pack2 2784.
Plate: P.Aberd. plate 3.
ACTA XX
The papyrus is 4.8 × 4.5 cm. It is written in a round, oval, semi-literary hand on the verso of an early second-century document. Only six lines from the middle of a column of writing are preserved.
Date: Late second century ad.
Provenance: Unknown, but the editors of P.Harr. ii state that most of the papyri from the Rendel Harris collection come from Oxyrhynchus.
Text: Musurillo published the fragment as APM and Actaxx, designating the text as P. Rendel Harris ined.
