Synopsis
This volume records the results of excavations and investigations undertaken by the EES between 1963 and 1998 on the largest surviving building, the Cathedral Church, at the site of Qasr Ibrim, one of the very few not totally destroyed by inundation following the construction of the Aswan Dam and the creation of Lake Nasser. It sets out the archaeological evidence, which has resulted from excavations and a detailed study of the surviving fabric, and provides an interpretation of that evidence for the construction of the Cathedral Church, including its subsequent abandonment and use as a domestic dwelling and then an Ottoman Mosque. It also places the building and the site within the context of medieval Nubia.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume includes fragments from three Christian texts, two lost classical works, prose texts and utilitarian literature.5128 combines biblical excerpts within a larger text, perhaps a hymn. 5129 represents the first text of Justin Martyr to appear among the papyri. 5127 is a miniature parchment copy of Psalm CIX, a favourite text for amulets.5130, an excerpt from Alcidamas, the once famous sophist and rival of Isocrates, proves that he wrote, or was thought to have written, a paradoxical Praise of Poverty. 5131 provides a central scene of Greek Tragedy, with a corpse borne onto the stage in the presence of Athamas.5132 adds an early witness to the tradition of Aristophanes, Thesmophoriazusae. 51335147, from speeches of Isocrates, exemplify various dates, formats and levels of production. 51485152 contain fragments of speeches of the Demosthenic corpus rarely represented in papyri. 51535158 contain works from Plutarchs Moralia.5159 is a rare example of a metrical handbook. 5160 presents a commentary, learned and detailed notes on an Old Comedy. 51615163 belong to another uncommon type, glossaries for Greek-speakers learning Latin.Documentary texts 51645172 date from the earliest years of Roman rule in Egypt, when the new regime set out to increase revenue. 5178 and 5179 are letters sent to officials dating to the second century. Other items touch everyday crises including the employment a wet nurse for a foundling from the dung-hill and an under-age girl working as a servant, against a loan made to her father and brothers. Includes fragments from three Christian texts (biblical excerpts, a text of Justin the Martyr and a miniature copy of Psalm CIX), two lost classical works, prose texts and utilitarian literature including a rare example of a metrical handbook.
