Description | Papyrus codex of the Gospel of John in a subtype of the Mesokemic dialect of Coptic (dialect W, or crypto-mésokémique, according to Kasser 2006, 437-439). The codex was considered in the CMCL as the same codicological unit with CLM 2207 (P.Mich.inv. 3520), which contains the Ecclesiastes. Husselman 1962, 1 observes, however, that the format of P.Mich.inv. 3520 is larger than that of P.Mich.inv. 3521 and that the scripts are different. |
