Abstract :
Edition of six assorted texts on ostraka and wood from the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. They include a school text on a wood tablet and five documentary ostraka. Of the latter, one provides new evidence for the use of the modius castrensis in Egypt, another records payment to an official of Hermonthis (the princeps), another adds to the rather small number of orders for payment in oil written on ostraka, and yet another records purchases of bricks in large quantity.
