Textual Notes
Paleography: The hand is similar to Pl. 13445E- P. 13448-2. Note that this fragment is also written 90 degrees over a Demotic palimpsest. Fragment Pl. 13461B- P. 13448-13 + B/AM x 428, 17 + B/AM x 420, 16 (+) Pl. 13445E- P. 13448-8 is a similar hand but written more upright and with a thinner stylus. Possible joins: Should Pl. 13445E- P. 13448-2 belong to the same document it must be an entry on the verso with a vacat on the recto. Note that the “blank” side does have strokes at the top of the manuscript.
