Description

A large collection of demotic papyrus fragments (together with texts in Aramaic, Greek and hieratic Egyptian not included here) found by W. B. Emery in 1966-67 at North Saqqara. The texts have been dated, largely, to the 4th century BC and are probably among the earliest manuscripts of demotic literary texts preserved.
