Text Basic Information

Localization of Text on Object	recto
Inks and Pigments	carbon ink monochrome black
Range of Preservation (Text)	incomplete
State of Preservation (Text)	The very fragmentary text is a palimpsest. There are vertical lines that separate columns (single or double lines). It is likely that some of these lines are remains of the previous text and that the scribe used this partitioning for his own text. Sometimes, the scribe wrote above the lines and into the next column. In these cases, curved lines separate the line from the text of the other column. One time, a curved line was used to divide the main text from another text. Sheet joins of the papyrus were not always left blank.
Script, Primary	Hieratic
Language, Primary	Middle Egyptian, Late
Comments on Handwriting	The handwriting is irregular. The text is stichic.
Comments on Text Layout	Parts of 13 very fragmentary columns are preserved. The text could have consisted of more than 13 columns due to the uncertainty concerning the space of the gaps between the fragments and the lost beginning. It is likely that there was a second text on this object. “The […] papyrus Berlin 23040 shows several cases where lines forgotten by the scribe were added in the margins. In order to show their position, demotic numerals indicating the exact line were used in addition to a mark going back to the hieratic form of [Gardiner D51]. […] It seems that the numbers were counted from the top if the addition was in the upper margin, but from the bottom if the addition was in the lower margin.” (Quack, Nachträge, 343) width x heigh of the columns: Col. x+I-x+II: 155x305 Col. X+III-x+IV: 130x175 Col. x+V-x+VII: 210x285 Col. x+VIII: 111x285 Col. X+IX-x+XI: 200x260 Col. x+XII-x+XIII: 180x275 The text on the verso of the columns x+V, x+VI and x+XIII is rubbed out.
