    Texts and Artifacts: A Spatial Analysis of Papyri at Karanis

    No full text
    This paper takes a quantitative and spatial analytical approach to the papyri excavated from the Graco-Roman Egyptian town of Karanis. It attempts to accomplish two things. Firstly, it breaks down the descriptive attributes of the papyrological assemblage as a whole, giving a sense of the types of texts, authors, dates and languages involved. The goal of this part of the paper is to overcome the past tendency of publishing individual texts or small archives without their larger context. Secondly, the paper plots the proveniences of papyri from Karanis using a Geographic Information System or GIS. Papyri are used as proxies for socio-economic status and literacy. Plotting the proveniences shows a distinct lack of a single cluster of papyri, revealing instead either several clusters or an even distribution. This suggests the lack of a single wealth or literate center within the town of Karanis. Future studies hope to include both archaeological artifacts and more stratigraphic layers in the GIS spatial analysis

    This volume contains 25 papyri, which were excavated in the village of Karanis in the north-eastern Fayum by American archaeologists (1924-1926). Half of the new texts are literary, mostly from the library of the tax collector Socrates; the others are documents that can shed new light on the activities of the tax collector or of other inhabitants of Karanis. They give us a vivid picture of village life in Graeco-Roman Egypt in the 2nd century AD.This volume contains 25 papyri, which were excavated in the village of Karanis in the north-eastern Fayum by American archaeologists (1924-1926).

    Akkers gearchiveerd in muren. Onderzoek naar Romeinse graanverbouw in Karanis (Egypte)

    The walls and fields of Karanis (Egypt): botanical remains in building materials reflecting Roman agriculture. Off-site vegetation of cereal fields and off-site agricultural practices can be inferred from, among other things, botanical remains in building materials such as mud bricks, mortar and plaster. This was tested on samples from the Graeco-Roman site of Karanis, situated in the Fayum in Egypt. It appeared that chopped straw and chaff and an overwhelming quantity of durum-wheat rachis nodes were present, as well as arable weeds; these represent the upper layers of a cereal field. Water plants and low weeds were present as well, representing the soil layer of a cereal field and entering the building materials via the clay used. Possible kitchen waste was also found, as a deliberate or accidental addition. Thus building materials can be used to infer agricultural practices, although the interpretation of botanical remains can be complicated
