Description | P.Amst. I 25; KV72 Papyrus fragment from a codex containing Origenes De principiis 3:1.6-8. The fragment measures approx. 14.3 cm x 9.2 cm, and contains 17 and 19 lines of text on the verso and recto respectively. The lower margins are relatively tall (4.6 and 4.3 cm), and the verso precedes the recto. As there are 33 lines of text are missing between the verso and recto, the original amount of lines per page can be estimated to 52 lines per page. The folio itself probably measured 36 x 28 cm originally. The hand is a small, narrow and relatively upright book hand. For punctuation, the scribe employs a low or mid-point. The text contains diaereses, nomina sacra, a diastole after οὐχ in l. 4 recto (i.e., the following page) and a rough breathing in l. 15 verso. |
