Abstract

In Tyche 15 (2000) 111-117 (with Taf. 5), Rosario Pintaudi and Wolf Oerter publish a papyrus found in late antique occupation levels of the Fifth Dynasty funerary temple of Queen Khentkawes at Abusir. It contains a Greek receipt for wheat on one side and a Coptic letter addressed to one Apa Paulos, presumably a monk, on the other.
