Long-time blogger Ben Witherington has been running an interesting little series summarizing William Johnson’s Bookrolls and Scribes in Oxyrhynchus which folks might want to spend some time with:
- The Fascinating World of Ancient Papyri— Part One (on some assumption made by scholars)
- The Fascinating World of Ancient Papyri— Part Two (on the numbers of and various types of texts)
- The Fascinating World of Ancient Papyri– Part Three (on the scribes, professional and otherwise)
- The Fascinating World of Ancient Papyri— Part Four (on the process)
