New 3rd Century Papyrus Discovered (re Gothic Invasions)

Very interesting, thanks for the link.
I think you mean "palimpsest" not "papyrus," no? From the attached article, it looks as though the find concerns the undertext of parchment leaves, which had been washed and overwritten in the 11th century.

Your reply makes no sense. In the attached article, it is stated on p. 29, n. 2, that the writing material is parchment. So this is not papyrus.

Try writing out the full title in the limited space. My mistake but there wasn't enough space for 'palimpsest'
