Monographs in the series include not only editions of papyri and ostraca—literary, subliterary, and documentary; Greek, Coptic, and otherwise—but also the various histories that can be written from the study of papyrological texts.Jean Gascou presents here an edition of a tax register from Hermopolis in the seventh century CE.
