Winkler, Andreas (Berkeley) Crocodile Priests Collecting Cash - Revenues and the Temple in Roman Tebtunis

I will discuss two fragmentary Demotic receipts from the first and second centuries AD issued by the priests of Soknebtunis. The older of the two texts is a bilingual receipt for 'Greek' reeds from the reign of Augustus. The other receipt concerns the so-ca lied 'temple-tax' on property transfer, which offers interesting variants on the other texts of this kind published thus far. Despite their incomplete state of preservation, the two texts pro­vide new insights into the organisation of the fiscal regime of the Tebtunis temple in the two first centuries of Roman rule. In addition to the content of these two texts, I will also examine the identity of the priests who is­sued these receipts.

Xu, lawrence (Auckland) Re-evaluation of speeches in the /naros cyde

One of the most impressive aspects of the Inaros cycle is the frequent occurrence of speeches or character-texts. These speeches are crucial to the analysis and understanding of the interactions and the development of relationships between characters, as weil as establishing their charac­terisation in the narratological framework within the texts. Such a narrato­logical approach has been used by Steve Vinson in his analysis of Setne / and mentioned by Friedhelm Hoffmann (Der Kampf um den Panzer des /naros,1996) in the case of the Inaros cycle. This paper will further develop the narratological significance of speeches in the Inaros cycle by applying Conversation Analysis and Cognitive Linguistics, which will offer a deeper understanding of characterisation within the Inaros corpus. In addition, the analysis will present an insight into the reception and presentation of the key characters. Evidence for the analysis will be drawn predominantly

Vinson, Steve (Indiana) Moses, Mumbo jumbo, and the Secret Keys to Universal Power: the �First Tale ofSetne Khaemwas' and Afdcan-Amedcan Egyptomania, 1939-1988

Studies of the reception of the Demotic 'First Tale of Setne Khaemwas' have typieally focused on its resonance with Gothie and horror fiction, or its adaptation by mid-Twentieth-century European novelists like Mika Waltari or Thomas Mann. The place of 'First Setne' in the African-American reception of ancient Egypt in the same period has hardly been touched on, but it is extensive. Via the translation that had appeared in Flinders Petrie's anthology of Egyptian tales (1895), 'First Setne' was adapted by Harlem Renaissance author Zora Neale Hurston in her novel Moses: Man of the Mountain (1939). In this novel, Naneferkaptah is replaced by Mo­ses, who hopes to use the power of the Magic Mook of Thoth to free the Hebrew slaves of Egypt. Moses: Man of the Mountain was itself adapted and parodied by MacArthur Fellowship-winning author Ishmael Reed in his novel Mumbo jumbo (1971), in whieh the Magie Book of Thoth is the object of competing searches in 1920s-era Harlem. 'First Setne' also fig­ures - albeit indirectly - in the scholarship of Harvard University theorist of Afriean-Ameriean literature Henry Louis Gates. Via his analysis (1988) of Reed's Mumbo jumbo, Gates suggests resonances between 'First Setne' and Plato's Phaidros and its myth of the invention of hieroglyphs by Thoth - a connection that had been made even more explicitly in the 1970S by jacques Derrida, and whieh brings us back to Egyptological interpretations of 'First Setne', particularly its resonances with the historie 'Book of Thoth'.

Vittmann, Günter (Würzburg) Demotische Ostraka aus Assiut

Bei den Arbeiten der joint mission der Universitäten Mainz und Sohag in der Nekropole von Assiut wurden in den letzten jahren im sog. , Hunde­grab' ungefähr 60 demotische Ostraka aus dem 2. jh. v. Chr. entdeckt. Dabei handelt es sich zum großen Teil um Abrechnungen (Bier, Olivenöl, Wein, Weizen) und Namenlisten.

Uggetti, Lorenzo (Paris) P. Tor. Botti 34: some considerations on the administration of the temple of Hathor in Ptolemaic Deir el-Medina

The bilingual archive of Totoes and Tatehathyris, from the 2nd century BC, was discovered in Deir el-Medina by E. Schiaparelli in 1905 and then brought to the Egyptian Museum of Turin. The demotic texts were first published in 1967 by G. Botti in 'L 'archivio demotico da Deir E/-Medineh: He considered one of them, namely P.Tor.Botti 34 A, to be a payment of the debts of a man, after his death, by his three sons.

Many hints point to a new interpretation of this document: the sons, for example, are attorneys of Hathor in Deir el-Medina; allusion is made to some repair works and expenses made by their father for the temple of Hathor; the other party is the group of the presbyteroi of this temple.

Moreover, a new translation of P.Tor.Botti 34 B-C, i.e. the oath con­cerning the above-mentioned papyrus, found rolled up with it, may help to better understand P.Tor.Botti 34 A.

Vignot-Kott, Deborah (Paris) Dans ce monde, il n'y a den d'assure que la mort et les imp6ts

Le corpus des ostraca demotiques d'Edfou contient un dossier homogene concernant la taxe de la necropole. 11 est date du regne de Ptolemee 11 et compose de recus de taxes delivres a Nespakhy fils de Pasas (23 ostraca) et a Petepsegne fils de Thotortaios (4 0straca).

Michel Malinine a publie 21 de ces ostraca conserves a l' IFAO en 1961 dans les Melanges Mariette. En 1990 Ola el-Aguizy y a ajoute un docu­ment conserve au musee du Caire. En reprenant l'etude des ostraca apol­lonopolitains de l' IFAO dans le cadre de ma these, j'ai identifie 5 nou­veaux texts appartenant a cet ensemble.

La presentation de ces inedits et la reprise de l'ensemble du dossier, ainsi que des comparaisons avec des taxes de provenances differentes, permettront une meilleure comprehension des taxes funeraires a Edfou a l'epoque lagide.

S�rida, Rana (Kopenhagen) New /naros Story

The paper presents a new Inaros story from the Tebtunis temple library in Fayoum. The manuscript (PSI inv. 066) is mainly housed in Florence, in Istituto Papyrologico 'G. Vitelli', with only a few fragments in Copenhagen, in the Papyrus Carlsberg collection. It is one of the longest extant manu­scripts so far identified (over 500 fragments), which concerns the living Inaros. I will present preliminary information about the text, the characters involved in the story, as weil of the themes that I have so far been able to distinguish.

Tait, John (London) Dating problems and Demotic palaeography

There are a number of groups of Oemotic texts that are currently recog­nised as posing problems in the study of their palaeography. In particular, difficulties are feIt to arise, which hamper attempts to establish their da­ting on the basis of their hands. Such groups include the various finds of papyri, both documentary and literary, made in the Memphite Necropolis, notably the material that came to light in the course of excavations con­ducted from 1964, onwards by the Egypt Exploration Society in the North Saqqara area, and particularly within the Sacred Animal Necropolis. The present speaker was for several years able to study a large number of the papyri at first hand. This presentation considers some of the ways in which attention to details may help in tackling a variety of palaeograph­ical problems, and the relevance of these approaches to other groups of Oemotic material.

of Egyptian language, from the root 05i ('measure'). In Demotic, the word for balance-scale appears as mOy.t (and its variants), while the forms 50.t and iOy.t refer to the same word int the restricted usage as a zodiacal sign. In Coptic, the two word forms again coalesce into a single term for bal­ance-scale, M:\.C.!)€ (and its variants). These word forms are considered in

light of Grapow's assessment of the durability of the m-prefix and Osing's description of Egyptian morphology (1976). The presence of similar phe­nomena for other roots is considered.

Ryholt, Kim (Kopenhagen) A collection of unique biographical texts on a papyrus

During recent excavations in the dump next to the temple of Soknebtunis, a number of fragments of a papyrus inscribed with a collection of unique biographical texts were found. My talk will give details of the extraordinary personal details that emerge from the extant biographies and discuss the purpose of the collection.

Schütze, Alexander (Bonn) Eine ökonomische Analyse demotischer Rechtsurkunden

Demotische Rechtsurkunden enthalten als Produkte wirtschaftlicher Transaktionen eine Fülle von Informationen über die Motivationen der beteiligten wirtschaftlichen Akteure sowie die konkreten juristischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Rahmenbedingungen, unter denen diese Transaktionen zustande kamen. Seit einigen Jahren wird in den Alter­tumswissenschaften die sogenannte Neue Institutionenökonomik (NIÖ) als ein Instrumentarium rezipiert, um antike Wirtschaft(en) besser verste­hen zu können. Die NIÖ fragt u.a. nach den formellen (z. B. geltendes Recht, Verteilung von Verfügungsrechten) sowie informellen Rahmenbe­dingungen (soziale Normen, Mentalitäten usw.), die wirtschaftliches Han­deln determinieren. In diesem Beitrag sollen anhand von Fallbeispielen die Möglichkeiten diskutiert werden, die das Instrumentarium der NIÖ für eine ökonomische Analyse demotischer Rechtsurkunden bietet.

Abstracts (in alphabetischer Reihenfolge der Vortragenden)

Akeel, Maha (Kairo) Two demotic Accounts from Nag ' EI-Mashaykh

Two demotic ostraca belong to the collections of the Egyptian museum in Cairo and probably date to the Ptolemaic period. Their provenance is the site of Nag" El-Mashaykh, supposed to be the present location of the administrative capital of the eighth Upper Egyptian Thinite nome (T?-wr). The first of which, limestone fragment, is an account starts with a titte followed by unspecified amounts given in certain days for priestly and religious purposes. The other, potsherd, represents an account introduced by a heading, then occur amounts of different materials (barley, oil seeds) given for certain persons in certain days. The scribal features of the latter suggest certain relations with the site of Kom EI-Sultan (Abydos).

Arlt, Carolin Würzburg Tax Farming and Monopolies in Ptolemaic Soknopaiou Nesos

The farming out of taxes and monopolies is a well-known feature of the Greek administration in Ptolemaic Egypt. The rights to these were sold at public auctions, which began with the submission of written bids. Only two actual bids are preserved in the Greek papyri and none in Demotic Egyptian, which is not surprising since the whole procedure was derived from Greek administrative practices. There are, however, fifteen Demotic offers to take over monopolies or dependent sanctuaries from the main temple in DimejSoknopaiou Nesos that all date roughly to the second half of the 2nd cent. BCE. In this paper, I shall examine these important texts, as they are the only documents that inform us about the procedure in an Egyptian temple, which was similar to that of the royal administration. One of the questions I try to answer is what it means to take over a de­pendent sanctuary. I will also discuss other texts that document tax farm­ing and the sale of monopolies in Soknopaiou Nesos.

Baetens, Gert (Leuven) Demotic petitions

The paper presents the first results of a PhD project on Ptolemaie petition­ing practiees, funded by the Research Foundation Flanders and super­vised by Mark Depauw (K.U. Leuven). In stark contrast to the large number of studies that deal with their Greek counterparts, Demotie petitions have never been the object of thorough examination. This paper wants to rem­edy this. Starting point will be the evolution of Egyptian petitions to an autonomous genre during the Ptolemaie period. Next its place in the broader social and administrative context of Ptolemaic Egypt will be dis­cussed. Especially important in this respect are possible Egyptian transla­tions of Greek hypomnemata: P. Eleph. Dem. 1 (+ P. Eleph. Gr. 27a), be­longing to the archive of the praktor Milon, and col. 1-11 1 of the verso of P. BM 10591, recording a petition of the priests of Syene to the strategos Noumenios and adviee concerning their request by the legal specialist Totoes.

Botta, Alejandro (Boston) Aramaic and Demotic Legal Terms/Formulae and their Mesopotamian Equivalents

Previous studies by Porten (1992) and Botta (2013,2014) have presented forty Demotie/ Aramaie parallel legal terms/formulae. Ritner (2002) and Botta (2009), set some of those legal terms/formulae within the legacy of the ancient Egyptian legal tradition. Building upon the previous research of Muffs (1969), Cussini (1993), Gross (2008) and others, and my own ongoing research project, 'A Dietionary of Ancient Near Eastern Legal Terms and Formulae', this paper places the Aramaie/Demotie legal terms and formulae in their wider ancient Near Eastern context, adding the rele­vant Mesopotamian paralleis. The resulting data provides evidence of both continuity and innovation within the ancient Near Eastern use of technieal legal terminology. At the same time, it offers the material ne­cessary for the comparative study of ancient Near Eastern formulae, and the investigation of interaction and influence amongst the legal traditions of the ancient near East.

tion handbooks are individuated, one can work the other way round, and confidently assign to this genre modest papyrus scraps that preserve even just one of such diagnostie features. This paper will focus on two case studies, where the stylistic conformity of demotie dream books helps clarify wider issues in the understanding of Egyptian (and not only demot­ie) grammar. One concerns the verb snlf;y 'to nurse', and the other the well­known euphemistic use of the word bft 'enemy'.

Quack, Joachim Friedrich (Heidelberg) Project presentation: A corpus of demotic magical texts

Recently, I have launched a project to re-edit all known demotie magieal texts, as weil as to include as much unpublished material as possible in order to form a corpus whieh can serve as a counter-part to the well­known collections of Greek-Ianguage sources in PGM and SM: however it is planned to pay more attention to the structure of the manuscripts and give more commentary than it was done in PGM. The presentation will discuss some questions related to the project and indieate some first results. This concerns applying the term 'magical' as weil as the choiee of texts to be included or excluded from the corpus. Also, problems of the historieal development and the relation to earlier Egyptian as weil as Greek and other traditions will be tackled. It will be demonstrated that the writing of magieal texts in demotie script started much earlier than it is generally assumed and that some textual traditions span a very long time. Also, 'demotic' magic is far from homogenous, and its supposed differ­ence from earlier Egyptian magie is by no means universal to all attested ca ses.

Ross, Micah (Hsin Chu) A Case Study in Morphology

In 1914, Grapow described the potential of word forms with and without an m-prefix to alternate with each other. This interchange appears even in the same text. (In 1960, Fecht extended the phenomena to i-prefixes.) Grapow did not present this interchange of word forms as a diachronie variation. The word mb3.t ('balance-scale') appears in pre-Demotie phases

Muhs, Brian (Chicago) The Institutional Models for Ptolemaic Banks and Granaries

Bogaert (1982) suggested that the institutional models for Ptolemaic royal banks were Classical Greek public chests or treasuries and private banks. Preisigke (1910), however, observed that Ptolemaic royal banks and gran­aries employed similar administrative systems. In this paper, I will show that Ptolemaic temple treasuries and granaries also used administrative systems similar to those of royal banks and granaries. Greek accounts and other documents from Ptolemaic royal banks and granaries will be com­pared with Demotic accounts and documents from an early Ptolemaic temple at Nag' el-Mesheikh, and striking similiarities in operating and documentation procedures will be revealed. It seems unlikely that the Ptolemies remodeled the state and temple granary systems after Classical Greek banks, and therefore I will suggest instead that Ptolemaic royal banks were modeled on traditional Egyptian institutions, such as state and temple treasuries and granaries.

Prada, Luigi (Oxford) Divining Grammar: The Contribution of Demotic Divination Handbooks to the Study of some Points of Egyptian Grammar (and Vice Versa).

Over the past three and a half years, I have compiled a corpus of demotic oneirocritica, inclusive of several unpublished texts (ranging from early to Roman demotic papyri). For scholars of the demotic language, the main interest of dream books has traditionally been their value as a source of rare or unknown lexicon. As this paper will argue, these texts can also help shed light on some wider points of grammar and the use of more common lexical items. All demotic dream books show a highly uniform style, strictly abiding by a series of stylistic rules, which make them a perfect laboratory for the observation of grammar at work. Conversely, once these stylistic rules that distinguish oneirocritica from other divina-

Chaufray, Marie-Pierre (Bordeaux) Oil expenses in the temple of Soknopaios

The Roman documentation of the temple of Soknopaios in Dime is made up mostly of accounts and registers concerning the economic and admin­istrative activities of the temple. Long rolls of papyri were used by the scribes of the priests to write down the daily expenses of the temple, among which oil expenses for lighting and anointment appear regularly. The expenses in oil are also mentioned in the Greek fiscal declarations of the temple, in the 2nd century AD, where they are a major item among the expenses in kind. Besides these documents, Greek contracts and Egyp­tian agreements (hn.w) between the temple and individuals deal with the lease of oil mills, with oil making and oil delivery. This paper aims at com­paring the data given in these documents in order to study the manage­ment of oil production and consumption by the temple of Soknopaios and its economic impact in Dime and other villages in the Roman period.

Cole, Emily (Los Angeles) Commentary in Graeco-Roman Texts

In 1995, an important conversation concerning the use of commentary in Egyptian sources was begun by Jan Assmann and Ursula Rößler-Köhler in the edited volume Text und Kommentar. In their work, the authors raised questions regarding the nature of exegetical commentary, using Pharaonic materials, including Coffin Text 335 and Book of the Dead 17, to support their claims. It was noted, though not discussed at length, that several Graeco-Roman texts also included commentary. In this paper, I will return to this conversation and extend it to include later sources. In particular, I will outline the essential relationship between translation of different Egyptian language phases and scribal practices for commenting on texts. Several works such as P. BM 10252, the so-ca lied Book of Nut, P. Rhind I and 1 1, and late examples of the Book of the Dead will be referenced. By examining the material appended to source texts, I will attempt to demonstrate how Egyptian scribes used both translation and commentary as compositional tools in their linguistic endeavors.

Clarysse, Willy (Leuven) New Fragments to P. Count 2

In a double session Clarysse will present the text of the new columns that he has recently discovered in Paris which extend the Arsinoite tax register already published as P.Count 2 (229 BC). These provide a fuller picture of the range of tax-privileged groups but problems remain with the reading of some of the titles. In a follow-up discussion of the significance of the additional information, Thompson will concentrate on the occupational structure of the population.

Cruz-Uribe, Eugene (Indiana) Demotic Graffiti {rom Philae

This short paper will look at a series of Demotic graffiti found at the tem­ple of Isis on Philae Island. The author has spent a number of visits to the Isis temple where he has examined a large new corpus of Demotic graffiti which numbers almost 500 items. While many of the graffiti are smalI, short texts, there are a number of substantive items found in all areas of the temple. I will also discuss a number of new editions of texts first pub­lished by F. LI. Griffith in his Catalogue of the Demotic Inscriptions from the Dodecaschoenus (1937). The Demotic texts reveal a great deal of in­formation on the interactions of the Nubian groups south of Aswan and the complex interactions between them and the RomanjByzantine rulers in the area. The paper will address the notion of who were the authors of these graffiti and why they wrote.

Depauw, Mark (Leuven) Demotic and Digital Humanities

The world of Digital Humanities is in constant flow, with many new (and exciting!) possibilities for scholarship. Demotic can and should not lag behind. This paper presents some of these new avenues, the challenges involved and some first results achieved. Amongst the keywords are: So-

Außerdem läßt sich zeigen, daß bei der Schreibung der 5 auch die vertikale Dimension der Schreiblinie zur Vermeidung von Mehrdeutig­keiten eingesetzt wurde. Die bereits vor der Erstedition des mathemati­schen Textes Aufmerksamkeit erregende Schreibung von "echten Brü­chen" in einigen Aufgabentexten wird durch die Unterstreichung des "Zählers" erreicht. Unter diesen Unterstreichungen finden sich manchmal dicke Punkte, für die trotz der Schadhaftigkeit und Seltenheit des Materi­als eine einheitliche Erklärung möglich ist.

Lippert, Sandra L. (Montpellier) Le village de Dionysias au Fayoum et ses relations avec Soknopaiou Ne­sos

Le village de Dionysias, en demotique P?-tmy-n-m?y - situe dans la meris de Themistos -, est mentionne avec une frequence etonnante dans des textes documentaires provenant du temple de Soknopaiou Nesos qui, pour sa part, releve de la meris d'Herakleides. Dans cette communication, on cherchera ä eclaircir les liens qui existaient entre ces deux villages, essentiellement entre ses temples et leurs clerges, depuis l'epoque pto­lemaique jusqu'ä au moins le 2e siecle de notre ere.

Martin, Cary J. (London) jiigsaw Puzzles in the Bibliotheque nationale de France

There are more than thirty demotic papyri belonging to the funerary­workers of the Memphite Necropolis, but nearly all of these are from the Archive of the God's Seal-bearers and only four come from that of the Choachytes. The recent identification of further texts in the Bibliotheque nationale de France, however, has nearly doubled the number of texts from the Choachytes' Archive. At first sight these papyri look to be sub­stantial, albeit incomplete, texts, but all is not as it seems. This paper looks at these new papyri, some of the unusual and unexpected infor-

Depuydt, Leo (Norton) On a Few Selected Problems in Demotic Grammar

At the immediate past five Demotic conferences of Demotic Studies, be­ginning with the one held in 1999 in Copenhagen and including the one held 12 years aga like the present one in Würzburg, I have reported on investigations into Demotic grammar, on occasion noting how compara­tively little attention the grammar of Demotic receives. In 1999, I present­ed a list of 19 studies published in the preceding decade. In 2011 at Ox­ford, I updated the list with 24 more items. Since then, the written report of my Oxford paper has kept growing with new material into what is now about ready for publication as a monograph. In terms of organizational principles, this investigation makes an attempt to apply a modus operan­di described as follows by F.X. Kugler S.J. in the introduction to his re­searches on the chronology of ancient Israel, entitled Von Moses bis Pau­lus (1922), at p. XII: 'So schritt denn die Untersuchung ... nach oben und unten weiter, doch überall nur da einsetzend, wo wichtige Fragen noch immer ihrer Lösung harrten.'

Di Cerbo, Christina (Chicago) Progress Report on the Documentation of Demotic Graffiti Pertaining to the Ibis and Fa/con Cult from Dra Abu Naga'a

The Spanish-Egyptian Mission headed by Dr. Jose Galan has been active at Dra Abu Naga'a since 2002. Focusing on the Tombs of Djehuty (TT119 and Hery (TT12), they have revealed numerous Demotic graffiti associated with the Ibis and Falcon Cult based there in the Ptolemaic Period. Some of these graffiti are 'new', others had already been published as hand copies in Marquis of Northampton, W. Spiegelberg, and P. Newberry, Report on

Some Excavations in the Theban Necropolis During the Winter of 1898-9 (London, 1908), 19-25 ('The Demotic Inscriptions'). Our collaboration with the Spanish-Egyptian Misssion, which naturally has emphasized cleaning, conservation, and documentation, has given to us an excellent opportuni-

Fellinger, Renate (Cambridge) The legal role of women in Ptolemaic Thebes: A case study of cross­cultural influence

The Ptolemaic dynasty created a 'hybrid state', incorporating Graeco­Macedonian traditions and Egyptian customs, in order to legitimize their rule and to foster relationships with constituencies from both back­grounds. In the legal sphere, this resulted in the co-existence of Greek and Egyptian legal instruments and institutions. Egyptians, Greeks and ethnic minorities, such as Jewish communities, lived alongside each oth­er; cross-cultural interaction and, subsequently, influence was inevitable. In his Marriage and Matrimonial Property in Ancient Egypt, P.W. Pestman (1961:184) proposed that the role of women degraded due to the influence of Greek law. This paper questions this hypothesis by examining the par­ticipation of women in the legal landscape of Ptolemaic Egypt as reflected in Theban documents for money. Key indicators of the legal role of women (for example, the ability to act independently vs. requiring a male guardi­an) as identified in pharaonic and ClassicaljHellenistic Greek sources will be reviewed. Then the legal role of women as portrayed in the dataset will be analyzed through statistical and comparative means. This study forms part of my doctoral research which aims to determine the extent to which Greek legal traditions may have influenced the role of women as reflected in demotic legal practices.

In a double session Clarysse will present the text of the new columns that he has recently discovered in Paris which extend the Arsinoite tax register already published as P.Count 2 (229 BC). These provide a fuller picture of the range of tax-privileged groups but problems remain with the reading of some of the titles. In a follow-up discussion of the significance of the additional information, Thompson will concentrate on the occupational structure of the population.

Cruz-Uribe, Eugene (Indiana) Demotic Graffiti {rom Philae

This short paper will look at a series of Demotic graffiti found at the tem­ple of Isis on Philae Island. The author has spent a number of visits to the Isis temple where he has examined a large new corpus of Demotic graffiti which numbers almost 500 items. While many of the graffiti are smalI, short texts, there are a number of substantive items found in all areas of the temple. I will also discuss a number of new editions of texts first pub­lished by F. LI. Griffith in his Catalogue of the Demotic Inscriptions from the Dodecaschoenus (1937). The Demotic texts reveal a great deal of in­formation on the interactions of the Nubian groups south of Aswan and the complex interactions between them and the RomanjByzantine rulers in the area. The paper will address the notion of who were the authors of these graffiti and why they wrote.

Depauw, Mark (Leuven) Demotic and Digital Humanities

Außerdem läßt sich zeigen, daß bei der Schreibung der 5 auch die vertikale Dimension der Schreiblinie zur Vermeidung von Mehrdeutig­keiten eingesetzt wurde. Die bereits vor der Erstedition des mathemati­schen Textes Aufmerksamkeit erregende Schreibung von "echten Brü­chen" in einigen Aufgabentexten wird durch die Unterstreichung des "Zählers" erreicht. Unter diesen Unterstreichungen finden sich manchmal dicke Punkte, für die trotz der Schadhaftigkeit und Seltenheit des Materi­als eine einheitliche Erklärung möglich ist.

Lippert, Sandra L. (Montpellier) Le village de Dionysias au Fayoum et ses relations avec Soknopaiou Ne­sos

Le village de Dionysias, en demotique P?-tmy-n-m?y - situe dans la meris de Themistos -, est mentionne avec une frequence etonnante dans des textes documentaires provenant du temple de Soknopaiou Nesos qui, pour sa part, releve de la meris d'Herakleides. Dans cette communication, on cherchera ä eclaircir les liens qui existaient entre ces deux villages, essentiellement entre ses temples et leurs clerges, depuis l'epoque pto­lemaique jusqu'ä au moins le 2e siecle de notre ere.

Martin, Cary J. (London) jiigsaw Puzzles in the Bibliotheque nationale de France

There are more than thirty demotic papyri belonging to the funerary­workers of the Memphite Necropolis, but nearly all of these are from the Archive of the God's Seal-bearers and only four come from that of the Choachytes. The recent identification of further texts in the Bibliotheque nationale de France, however, has nearly doubled the number of texts from the Choachytes' Archive. At first sight these papyri look to be sub­stantial, albeit incomplete, texts, but all is not as it seems. This paper looks at these new papyri, some of the unusual and unexpected infor-

Muhs, Brian (Chicago) The Institutional Models for Ptolemaic Banks and Granaries

Bogaert (1982) suggested that the institutional models for Ptolemaic royal banks were Classical Greek public chests or treasuries and private banks. Preisigke (1910), however, observed that Ptolemaic royal banks and gran­aries employed similar administrative systems. In this paper, I will show that Ptolemaic temple treasuries and granaries also used administrative systems similar to those of royal banks and granaries. Greek accounts and other documents from Ptolemaic royal banks and granaries will be com­pared with Demotic accounts and documents from an early Ptolemaic temple at Nag' el-Mesheikh, and striking similiarities in operating and documentation procedures will be revealed. It seems unlikely that the Ptolemies remodeled the state and temple granary systems after Classical Greek banks, and therefore I will suggest instead that Ptolemaic royal banks were modeled on traditional Egyptian institutions, such as state and temple treasuries and granaries.

Prada, Luigi (Oxford) Divining Grammar: The Contribution of Demotic Divination Handbooks to the Study of some Points of Egyptian Grammar (and Vice Versa).

Over the past three and a half years, I have compiled a corpus of demotic oneirocritica, inclusive of several unpublished texts (ranging from early to Roman demotic papyri). For scholars of the demotic language, the main interest of dream books has traditionally been their value as a source of rare or unknown lexicon. As this paper will argue, these texts can also help shed light on some wider points of grammar and the use of more common lexical items. All demotic dream books show a highly uniform style, strictly abiding by a series of stylistic rules, which make them a perfect laboratory for the observation of grammar at work. Conversely, once these stylistic rules that distinguish oneirocritica from other divina-

Chaufray, Marie-Pierre (Bordeaux) Oil expenses in the temple of Soknopaios

The Roman documentation of the temple of Soknopaios in Dime is made up mostly of accounts and registers concerning the economic and admin­istrative activities of the temple. Long rolls of papyri were used by the scribes of the priests to write down the daily expenses of the temple, among which oil expenses for lighting and anointment appear regularly. The expenses in oil are also mentioned in the Greek fiscal declarations of the temple, in the 2nd century AD, where they are a major item among the expenses in kind. Besides these documents, Greek contracts and Egyp­tian agreements (hn.w) between the temple and individuals deal with the lease of oil mills, with oil making and oil delivery. This paper aims at com­paring the data given in these documents in order to study the manage­ment of oil production and consumption by the temple of Soknopaios and its economic impact in Dime and other villages in the Roman period.

Cole, Emily (Los Angeles) Commentary in Graeco-Roman Texts

In 1995, an important conversation concerning the use of commentary in Egyptian sources was begun by Jan Assmann and Ursula Rößler-Köhler in the edited volume Text und Kommentar. In their work, the authors raised questions regarding the nature of exegetical commentary, using Pharaonic materials, including Coffin Text 335 and Book of the Dead 17, to support their claims. It was noted, though not discussed at length, that several Graeco-Roman texts also included commentary. In this paper, I will return to this conversation and extend it to include later sources. In particular, I will outline the essential relationship between translation of different Egyptian language phases and scribal practices for commenting on texts. Several works such as P. BM 10252, the so-ca lied Book of Nut, P. Rhind I and 1 1, and late examples of the Book of the Dead will be referenced. By examining the material appended to source texts, I will attempt to demonstrate how Egyptian scribes used both translation and commentary as compositional tools in their linguistic endeavors.

Baetens, Gert (Leuven) Demotic petitions

The paper presents the first results of a PhD project on Ptolemaie petition­ing practiees, funded by the Research Foundation Flanders and super­vised by Mark Depauw (K.U. Leuven). In stark contrast to the large number of studies that deal with their Greek counterparts, Demotie petitions have never been the object of thorough examination. This paper wants to rem­edy this. Starting point will be the evolution of Egyptian petitions to an autonomous genre during the Ptolemaie period. Next its place in the broader social and administrative context of Ptolemaic Egypt will be dis­cussed. Especially important in this respect are possible Egyptian transla­tions of Greek hypomnemata: P. Eleph. Dem. 1 (+ P. Eleph. Gr. 27a), be­longing to the archive of the praktor Milon, and col. 1-11 1 of the verso of P. BM 10591, recording a petition of the priests of Syene to the strategos Noumenios and adviee concerning their request by the legal specialist Totoes.

Botta, Alejandro (Boston) Aramaic and Demotic Legal Terms/Formulae and their Mesopotamian Equivalents

Previous studies by Porten (1992) and Botta (2013,2014) have presented forty Demotie/ Aramaie parallel legal terms/formulae. Ritner (2002) and Botta (2009), set some of those legal terms/formulae within the legacy of the ancient Egyptian legal tradition. Building upon the previous research of Muffs (1969), Cussini (1993), Gross (2008) and others, and my own ongoing research project, 'A Dietionary of Ancient Near Eastern Legal Terms and Formulae', this paper places the Aramaie/Demotie legal terms and formulae in their wider ancient Near Eastern context, adding the rele­vant Mesopotamian paralleis. The resulting data provides evidence of both continuity and innovation within the ancient Near Eastern use of technieal legal terminology. At the same time, it offers the material ne­cessary for the comparative study of ancient Near Eastern formulae, and the investigation of interaction and influence amongst the legal traditions of the ancient near East.

tion handbooks are individuated, one can work the other way round, and confidently assign to this genre modest papyrus scraps that preserve even just one of such diagnostie features. This paper will focus on two case studies, where the stylistic conformity of demotie dream books helps clarify wider issues in the understanding of Egyptian (and not only demot­ie) grammar. One concerns the verb snlf;y 'to nurse', and the other the well­known euphemistic use of the word bft 'enemy'.

Quack, Joachim Friedrich (Heidelberg) Project presentation: A corpus of demotic magical texts

Recently, I have launched a project to re-edit all known demotie magieal texts, as weil as to include as much unpublished material as possible in order to form a corpus whieh can serve as a counter-part to the well­known collections of Greek-Ianguage sources in PGM and SM: however it is planned to pay more attention to the structure of the manuscripts and give more commentary than it was done in PGM. The presentation will discuss some questions related to the project and indieate some first results. This concerns applying the term 'magical' as weil as the choiee of texts to be included or excluded from the corpus. Also, problems of the historieal development and the relation to earlier Egyptian as weil as Greek and other traditions will be tackled. It will be demonstrated that the writing of magieal texts in demotie script started much earlier than it is generally assumed and that some textual traditions span a very long time. Also, 'demotic' magic is far from homogenous, and its supposed differ­ence from earlier Egyptian magie is by no means universal to all attested ca ses.

Ross, Micah (Hsin Chu) A Case Study in Morphology

In 1914, Grapow described the potential of word forms with and without an m-prefix to alternate with each other. This interchange appears even in the same text. (In 1960, Fecht extended the phenomena to i-prefixes.) Grapow did not present this interchange of word forms as a diachronie variation. The word mb3.t ('balance-scale') appears in pre-Demotie phases

17

of Egyptian language, from the root 05i ('measure'). In Demotic, the word for balance-scale appears as mOy.t (and its variants), while the forms 50.t and iOy.t refer to the same word int the restricted usage as a zodiacal sign. In Coptic, the two word forms again coalesce into a single term for bal­ance-scale, M:\.C.!)€ (and its variants). These word forms are considered in

light of Grapow's assessment of the durability of the m-prefix and Osing's description of Egyptian morphology (1976). The presence of similar phe­nomena for other roots is considered.

Demotische Rechtsurkunden enthalten als Produkte wirtschaftlicher Transaktionen eine Fülle von Informationen über die Motivationen der beteiligten wirtschaftlichen Akteure sowie die konkreten juristischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Rahmenbedingungen, unter denen diese Transaktionen zustande kamen. Seit einigen Jahren wird in den Alter­tumswissenschaften die sogenannte Neue Institutionenökonomik (NIÖ) als ein Instrumentarium rezipiert, um antike Wirtschaft(en) besser verste­hen zu können. Die NIÖ fragt u.a. nach den formellen (z. B. geltendes Recht, Verteilung von Verfügungsrechten) sowie informellen Rahmenbe­dingungen (soziale Normen, Mentalitäten usw.), die wirtschaftliches Han­deln determinieren. In diesem Beitrag sollen anhand von Fallbeispielen die Möglichkeiten diskutiert werden, die das Instrumentarium der NIÖ für eine ökonomische Analyse demotischer Rechtsurkunden bietet.

Akeel, Maha (Kairo) Two demotic Accounts from Nag ' EI-Mashaykh

Two demotic ostraca belong to the collections of the Egyptian museum in Cairo and probably date to the Ptolemaic period. Their provenance is the site of Nag" El-Mashaykh, supposed to be the present location of the administrative capital of the eighth Upper Egyptian Thinite nome (T?-wr). The first of which, limestone fragment, is an account starts with a titte followed by unspecified amounts given in certain days for priestly and religious purposes. The other, potsherd, represents an account introduced by a heading, then occur amounts of different materials (barley, oil seeds) given for certain persons in certain days. The scribal features of the latter suggest certain relations with the site of Kom EI-Sultan (Abydos).

Arlt, Carolin Würzburg Tax Farming and Monopolies in Ptolemaic Soknopaiou Nesos

The farming out of taxes and monopolies is a well-known feature of the Greek administration in Ptolemaic Egypt. The rights to these were sold at public auctions, which began with the submission of written bids. Only two actual bids are preserved in the Greek papyri and none in Demotic Egyptian, which is not surprising since the whole procedure was derived from Greek administrative practices. There are, however, fifteen Demotic offers to take over monopolies or dependent sanctuaries from the main temple in DimejSoknopaiou Nesos that all date roughly to the second half of the 2nd cent. BCE. In this paper, I shall examine these important texts, as they are the only documents that inform us about the procedure in an Egyptian temple, which was similar to that of the royal administration. One of the questions I try to answer is what it means to take over a de­pendent sanctuary. I will also discuss other texts that document tax farm­ing and the sale of monopolies in Soknopaiou Nesos.

It is one of the longest extant manu­scripts so far identified (over 500 fragments), which concerns the living Inaros. I will present preliminary information about the text, the characters involved in the story, as weil of the themes that I have so far been able to distinguish.

Tait, John (London) Dating problems and Demotic palaeography

There are a number of groups of Oemotic texts that are currently recog­nised as posing problems in the study of their palaeography. In particular, difficulties are feIt to arise, which hamper attempts to establish their da­ting on the basis of their hands. Such groups include the various finds of papyri, both documentary and literary, made in the Memphite Necropolis, notably the material that came to light in the course of excavations con­ducted from 1964, onwards by the Egypt Exploration Society in the North Saqqara area, and particularly within the Sacred Animal Necropolis. The present speaker was for several years able to study a large number of the papyri at first hand. This presentation considers some of the ways in which attention to details may help in tackling a variety of palaeograph­ical problems, and the relevance of these approaches to other groups of Oemotic material.

Uggetti, Lorenzo (Paris) P. Tor. Botti 34: some considerations on the administration of the temple of Hathor in Ptolemaic Deir el-Medina

The bilingual archive of Totoes and Tatehathyris, from the 2nd century BC, was discovered in Deir el-Medina by E. Schiaparelli in 1905 and then brought to the Egyptian Museum of Turin. The demotic texts were first published in 1967 by G. Botti in 'L 'archivio demotico da Deir E/-Medineh: He considered one of them, namely P.Tor.Botti 34 A, to be a payment of the debts of a man, after his death, by his three sons.

Many hints point to a new interpretation of this document: the sons, for example, are attorneys of Hathor in Deir el-Medina; allusion is made to some repair works and expenses made by their father for the temple of Hathor; the other party is the group of the presbyteroi of this temple.

Moreover, a new translation of P.Tor.Botti 34 B-C, i.e. the oath con­cerning the above-mentioned papyrus, found rolled up with it, may help to better understand P.Tor.Botti 34 A.

Vignot-Kott, Deborah (Paris) Dans ce monde, il n'y a den d'assure que la mort et les imp6ts

Le corpus des ostraca demotiques d'Edfou contient un dossier homogene concernant la taxe de la necropole. 11 est date du regne de Ptolemee 11 et compose de recus de taxes delivres a Nespakhy fils de Pasas (23 ostraca) et a Petepsegne fils de Thotortaios (4 0straca).

Michel Malinine a publie 21 de ces ostraca conserves a l' IFAO en 1961 dans les Melanges Mariette. En 1990 Ola el-Aguizy y a ajoute un docu­ment conserve au musee du Caire. En reprenant l'etude des ostraca apol­lonopolitains de l' IFAO dans le cadre de ma these, j'ai identifie 5 nou­veaux texts appartenant a cet ensemble.

La presentation de ces inedits et la reprise de l'ensemble du dossier, ainsi que des comparaisons avec des taxes de provenances differentes, permettront une meilleure comprehension des taxes funeraires a Edfou a l'epoque lagide.

Vinson, Steve (Indiana) Moses, Mumbo jumbo, and the Secret Keys to Universal Power: the �First Tale ofSetne Khaemwas' and Afdcan-Amedcan Egyptomania, 1939-1988

Studies of the reception of the Demotic 'First Tale of Setne Khaemwas' have typieally focused on its resonance with Gothie and horror fiction, or its adaptation by mid-Twentieth-century European novelists like Mika Waltari or Thomas Mann. The place of 'First Setne' in the African-American reception of ancient Egypt in the same period has hardly been touched on, but it is extensive. Via the translation that had appeared in Flinders Petrie's anthology of Egyptian tales (1895), 'First Setne' was adapted by Harlem Renaissance author Zora Neale Hurston in her novel Moses: Man of the Mountain (1939). In this novel, Naneferkaptah is replaced by Mo­ses, who hopes to use the power of the Magic Mook of Thoth to free the Hebrew slaves of Egypt. Moses: Man of the Mountain was itself adapted and parodied by MacArthur Fellowship-winning author Ishmael Reed in his novel Mumbo jumbo (1971), in whieh the Magie Book of Thoth is the object of competing searches in 1920s-era Harlem. 'First Setne' also fig­ures - albeit indirectly - in the scholarship of Harvard University theorist of Afriean-Ameriean literature Henry Louis Gates. Via his analysis (1988) of Reed's Mumbo jumbo, Gates suggests resonances between 'First Setne' and Plato's Phaidros and its myth of the invention of hieroglyphs by Thoth - a connection that had been made even more explicitly in the 1970S by jacques Derrida, and whieh brings us back to Egyptological interpretations of 'First Setne', particularly its resonances with the historie 'Book of Thoth'.

Vittmann, Günter (Würzburg) Demotische Ostraka aus Assiut

Bei den Arbeiten der joint mission der Universitäten Mainz und Sohag in der Nekropole von Assiut wurden in den letzten jahren im sog. , Hunde­grab' ungefähr 60 demotische Ostraka aus dem 2. jh. v. Chr. entdeckt. Dabei handelt es sich zum großen Teil um Abrechnungen (Bier, Olivenöl, Wein, Weizen) und Namenlisten. Ein eindeutiger thematischer Zusam­menhang mit den Hundebestattungen ist derzeit nieht klar zu erkennen, es gibt aber philologische Indizien, die auf einen Zusammenhang der

Ostraka bzw. zumindest eines Teils davon mit den Aktivitäten einer Kult­gemeinschaft, zu deren Aufgaben auch die Bestattung heiliger Tiere ge­hörte, deuten.

Winkler, Andreas (Berkeley) Crocodile Priests Collecting Cash - Revenues and the Temple in Roman Tebtunis

I will discuss two fragmentary Demotic receipts from the first and second centuries AD issued by the priests of Soknebtunis. The older of the two texts is a bilingual receipt for 'Greek' reeds from the reign of Augustus. The other receipt concerns the so-ca lied 'temple-tax' on property transfer, which offers interesting variants on the other texts of this kind published thus far. Despite their incomplete state of preservation, the two texts pro­vide new insights into the organisation of the fiscal regime of the Tebtunis temple in the two first centuries of Roman rule. In addition to the content of these two texts, I will also examine the identity of the priests who is­sued these receipts.

Xu, lawrence (Auckland) Re-evaluation of speeches in the /naros cyde

One of the most impressive aspects of the Inaros cycle is the frequent occurrence of speeches or character-texts. These speeches are crucial to the analysis and understanding of the interactions and the development of relationships between characters, as weil as establishing their charac­terisation in the narratological framework within the texts. Such a narrato­logical approach has been used by Steve Vinson in his analysis of Setne / and mentioned by Friedhelm Hoffmann (Der Kampf um den Panzer des /naros,1996) in the case of the Inaros cycle. This paper will further develop the narratological significance of speeches in the Inaros cycle by applying Conversation Analysis and Cognitive Linguistics, which will offer a deeper understanding of characterisation within the Inaros corpus. In addition, the analysis will present an insight into the reception and presentation of the key characters. Evidence for the analysis will be drawn predominantly
