Poll Tax Rates in Roman Egypt
Discussion of the various poll tax rates in Roman Egypt, which can be reduced to a simple scheme drawn up by the Romans upon their conquest of Egypt. This scheme suggests that in 30 BC the distribution of the population in Egypt was roughly uniform except for the Fayyum (underpopulated) and the western oases (overpopulated), possibly also Thebes (overpopulated). It also suggests that in 30 BC the distribution of the Greek population was uneven, w…

Papyrology
Papyrology is the study of ancient ink‐written texts on Papyrus (plural: papyri) and other writing materials, such as potsherds (ostraca) and tablets. The bulk of these papyrological texts are written on papyrus and derive from Egypt. For practical reasons, tablets with text scratched on them are not usually regarded as papyrological (except those from Egypt), whereas early (often fragmentary) parchment manuscripts (mainly from Egypt) usually are…
Money and Credit in Roman Egypt
The textual evidence for Egypt is unique for the Roman Empire. Papyrus documents allow us to trace developments in the economy over time. However, papyrologists have not yet digested the information in such a way that economic historians can take it from there. There are also major gaps in what the documents tell us. Finally, in the interpretation of the findings we cannot avoid making assumptions about the nature of the Egyptian economy in the R…
Saving History? Egyptian Hagiography in Its Space and Time
Egyptian hagiography, just as other kinds of hagiography, originates in a certain time and place. The problem is that we can rarely pin down what part of the evidence is early and what evidence derives from later developments. We also often do not know where exactly the evidence comes from. In this paper, I will first discuss some of the problems this poses in dealing with Egyptian hagiography as a source of history, then I will argue that it is …
From Monastery to Hospital: Christian Monasticism and the Transformation of Health Care in Late Antiquity
Andrew T. Crislip, From Monastery to Hospital: Christian Monasticism and the Transformation of Health Care in Late Antiquity , Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 2005. Pp. 246. $65. ISBN 0–472–11474–3. In this brief but heavily annotated book (142 pages of text and 59 pages of notes at the back), Crislip argues that health care underwent a dramatic change in Late Antiquity and that this change originated in the monastic environment, which p…
An Official Act of Cleopatra
The subject of this article is a Greek papyrus from Berlin recently published in the Festschrift for Jean Bingen. The papyrus was recovered from mummy cartonnage from Abusir el-Melek, which has yielded among other things old office papers from Alexandria (mostly from the Augustan period and published in BGU IV). The text is the most exciting document ever published from the later Ptolemaic period. Unfortunately the editor thought it was a private…

A New Edition of Ostraka from Akoris
In a reeently published report on Japanese exeavations at Akoris some Greek andCoptie ostraka found at this site are presented.
