INTRODUCTION

1. THE ORIGINAL TEXT OF THE EDWIN SMITH PAPYRUS

THE forty-six plates in this volume contain the originaltext of the Edwin Smith Papyrus as far as it is preserved to us,reproduced in facsimile on Plates Ito XXII, and in hieroglyphictransliteration on Plates I A to XXII A.

The facsimile plates (I-XXII) reproduce exactly the presentcondition of the papyrus, with the exception of Plate II, which,as explained below, has suffered slight alteration since it wasphotographed for publication.

In so far as he was not prevented by the writing on theverso, Mr. Smith mounted the papyrus on heavy manila paper.The columns once so mounted are shown on Plates I to XI.Glue or paste attracts destructive insects and itself sometimesdiscolors and damages a papyrus manuscript. It was thereforethought advisable, after the columns in question had beencarefully photographed, to attempt detaching them from thepaper backing, and after cleaning off the remaining glue, tomount each of these columns hermetically sealed between heavyplates of glass, in accordance with the approved modern methodof protecting papyrus manuscripts, while leaving them at thesame time accessible and legible. The preparator to whom thisdelicate task of detaching these columns was entrusted, was notsuccessful, and after he had finished with Column II the attemptwas not carried further. All of Columns I to XI, exceptColumn II, have been left on the paper backing, but have beenmounted between glass. The remaining columns of the papyrus(XII to XXII) are also between glass, a mounting which isindispensable in case of Columns XIII to XVII, on the backs ofwhich are written Columns XVIII to XXII, making it necessaryto have both sides accessible.1

With reference to the text, the slight damage to Column IIhas left it still perfectly legible. It has lost slightly in thickness,and as a result it has changed color. At the same time it hassuffered some distortion. There is now a vertical crack extend-ing from in line 5 across all the lines to line 15. Anothercrack extends from rt oin line 13 all the way to the bottom ofthe column. Both these cracks yawn slightly, separating inklines that should join, but nothing essential is lost. The facsimileof Column II does not show these blemishes, as it was photo-graphed before they occurred.

The text of the fragmentary Column I is further discussedbelow. The remaining facsimiles represent the columns (III-XXII) as they originally left the hand of the Egyptian scribe inthe Seventeenth Century . c., with but slight exceptions. Onthe edge of the paper on which Column V is mounted I find the

following note by Mr. Smith (the punctuation and spellingare his)

" There are 3 or 4 blurred places in the pap. occurring fromthe unequal tension of the pap. and paper, being corrugatedI smoothed them with a spatula which in some cases blurred

the pap. lines 13 & 15 are examples. All such cases are notedin margin, the other blurred places were in the papyrus; madeprobably by the transcriber while the ink was yet moist."

The only other note in which Mr. Smith calls attention toa blurred word, as far as I can find, is attached to this sameColumn V at line 15, and refers to the word -. This notereads : "for ZA? it was iSo which the scribe erased withthe sponge; such corrections are seen throughout this pap.here he forgot to insert the -, if indeed ' be not the root."

The remaining questions of the original condition of thepapyrus will be found discussed in the following sections.

a. The Text, the Reconstruction, and the Restoration of Column I

of the Surgical Treatise

In addition to the remarks on this column in Volume I(pp. 75-77), the following observations should also be noted,especially regarding the damaged condition of this columnas at present available.

The treatment to which Mr. Smith unavoidably subjectedthe fragments of Column I in order to soak them loose from thebogus roll (see Volume I, pp. 75-76), has affected the writing,especially along the edges of the fragments where the ink hasin places been abraded and has paled or even disappeared.Thus at the top of Fragment B there are only two traces of1. 1, where part of this line must once have been written.Similarly at the bottom of B and D there is a blank space,where parts of 1. 15 should appear. Sometimes not only theink but even the entire surface of the papyrus has been abraded,carrying away the vertical fibres of the fabric, e. g., at the endsof I1. 1-3. By tearing and displacement there is in places alsoa good deal of distortion, sometimes making fragmentary signsuncertain, especially along the edges of the fragments, as in11. 5, 9, 12, etc. Compare in 1. 20 (P1. I).

It should be noted in using Plate I B, that all signs whichare entirely outside the edges of the preserved fragments areof course always restorations; but sometimes a sign is halfpreserved and the restoration is based on the portion preserved.Usually signs included entirely within the edges of the fragments

The back of Column XII is blank; the backs of Columns I to XI arestill covered with paper, except Column II, as above explained.

The blank following Column XVII on the recto is 39 cm. long, and isalso blank on the verso.

are not restorations, but belong to the preserved text. Somesuch signs, however, are only partially preserved owing toabrasion, to the loss of the surface of the papyrus, or to breakagescausing holes in the papyrus. Thus the signs in 1. 1 on fragmentB have entirely disappeared because the surface is gone.

An important lacuna in 1. 9 in fragment B is due to a verticalcrack crossed by a horizontal abrasion at the level of 1. 9,immediately following the first r rt (not r rt in 1. 9, in fragmentA). Persistent examination of this vertical hole finally revealedthe fact that at this point the distortion which arose whenMr. Smith pasted these fragments on paper, has drawn thevertical edges of the hole too near together, thus narrowingthe space available for restoring the sign and making it appearthat there is not enough width for the restoration suggestedbelow. The vertical splinter of papyrus lost in the tallnarrow hole was much wider than the present hole. This ischiefly due to the fact that the left edge of the hole has beenpushed over to the right at the level of 1. 9, as even the photo-graph (see P1. I) reveals. At the same time there has beenabrasion of the surface in the same region carrying away ahorizontal band 14 mm. long from to f. This loss has cutin two horizontally all three signs of the problematical word ;and the first sign is also cut in two vertically, leaving very littleof it to suggest its identity. The unaltered photograph (P1. I),however, shows the following traces, which we must certainlyrecognize as remains of the .s' sign. On the right of the verticalhole, beginning at the top, are the tip of the right horn, belowit the outside of the outward curve, and the tip of the nose. Thehead and muzzle are lost in the hole. On the left of the holebeginning at the top are again the tip of the left horn, below itthe outward curve, the ear which is unmistakable, the twostrokes of the neck (cf. the same sign in 1. 12 below, or betterIV 19), and further down a trace of the foreleg. It should benoted that our scribe employs two forms of this gg sign: asimple form (as in IX 18) with no foreleg, and only one obliquestroke for the neck; and a fuller form with the foreleg indicatedand with two oblique strokes for the neck. Our broken sign in1. 9 is the fuller form. In the restoration on P1. I B, I have beenobliged to insert the ' sign in a space rendered too narrow forit by the incorrect narrowness of the hole in the present con-dition of the papyrus; but there can be no doubt about thereading a's. Following the A't sign (e. g., IV 19) we regularlyfind w and the zigzag ligature for 7 (I 12 is an exception).These two signs (w and the ligature) often overlap as in IV 19,and they do so here in 1 9; this fact and the horizontal abrasionhave left very misleading remains; but there is no distortionat this point, and restoration across the abrasion demonstratesthe certainty of the reading. The rendering "indications" for.5tw is noted in Vol. I, p. 80, and it is important to observethat in Papyrus Ebers, 100, 14-15, where it means " indica-tions," it is applied as in Papyrus Smith, I 9, to " indications "observable in the pulse.

Some less important textual details are the following:Line 1, at end: the sign is almost invisible and the head is

entirely gone; the tail is hidden by a slight fold in the papyrus.

Line 2, Fragment B. What looks like a w in red, above % isprobably a fragment pushed down from 1. 1 into 1. 2.

Line 4, only slight traces are discernible under the-.Line 4, j at end: only the middle of q, most of o and the

seal of are visible.Line 5, Fragment A: there are possibly very slight, but

smeared traces under o.Line 6, Fragments B-C: in hty only one of the two oblique

strokes is visible.Line 8, Fragment B, left edge: slight trace of the tip of

w (of wbnw) is visible on edge.Line 11, Fragment D, tail of , stops in following d and does

not extend across 1. 12. Its apparent extension is a scratchon the surface of the papyrus.

Line 19, Fragment E, tail of . in red comes down from 1. 18.Over it is a black oblique stroke, very clear in photograph(P1. I), which is perhaps a modern ink stroke (madeaccidentally by Smith ?). Before it are probable tracesof m.

Line 24, Fragment i: no traces and probably no loss above A.

The placing of the surviving fragments of Column I hasalready been discussed in Volume I (pp. 75-77). The size of thecolumn, however, and the restoration of the lost portions of thetext, as contributing to the determination of the width ofthe column, have not yet been discussed. Unfortunately thereis no complete line preserved in this column. The ends of sevenlines at the top, and of seven lines at the bottom, are preservedat the left side of the column; but not a single beginning.A vertical strip of papyrus, containing the beginning of everyline from the first to the last, has been lost at the right-handedge of the column. The first problem is to determine the widthof this lost strip. This can be done with at least rough approxi-mation to correctness by a restoration of the text based onrepetitions of the passages or fixed formulae recurring in thetreatise. Thus in Case 2, Gloss B (I, 16-17) is an explanationof adhesive tape which is fortunately repeated in Case 10 (V, 9),where it occupies exactly a complete line having a length of28-50 cm. In Column I this gloss occupies parts of two lines(ll. 16-17); and the last word (.E) of the gloss in 1. 17 falls12.50 mm. short of reaching as far as the first word (~ a-) in1. 16. The gloss, therefore, occupies 12.50 mm. less than a fullline of Column I; that is, a full line of Column V is not enoughto fill up a complete line of Column I. This difference wouldindicate that the lines were longer in Column I than in ColumnV;but the smaller writing in Column I is also a factor. In Column Ithe length of the introductory signs (in 1.16) from q = to thebroken left edge of the papyrus, that is to the middle of a (insid-wy), is 5 cm.; whereas in Column V the same amount oftext occupies a length of 6-25 cm., a difference of 12-50 mm. justequal to the amount (12.50 mm.) by which Gloss B in Column Ifalls short of occupying the full line. This evidence wouldindicate that Column I might have been as wide as Column V,that is about 29 cm. in width.

A similar comparison may be made between Column I,11. 14-15, containing a treatment repeated in Case 27 (IX,

x

oi.uchicago.edu

THE ORIGINAL TEXT

16-18) and Column IX, where this treatment occupies a lengthof 81-25 cm., while in Column I a slightly shorter text occupies2.5 cm. less than a full line. The size of the writing is again apossible factor, but hrw nb r ndm-f in Column IX (1. 18) is onlyvery slightly longer than in Column I (1. 15). This comparisonwould indicate that Column I was about as wide as the 29 cm.drawn from the first comparison above.

The scribe liked to begin a line with the introductory t4 ofthe examination, e. g. II 3, and II 12. In Column I, 1. 19obviously began with this o . The following protasis extend-ing to (but not including) the drr-hr.k, " thou shouldst palpate,"beginning the apodosis, can be measured in II 3, and II 12,where it is 16 cm. and 17 cm. long respectively. Measuring off17 cm. on the right of drr-hr.k in I 19, we gain a column about24.50 cm. wide. This width is supported by additional evidencebelow, and has been adopted in P1. I B.

The same width of Column I is indicated by restoring thetext on the lost strip at the right of Fragments C D. The lastword of 1. 2, " meat " (in the directions: " Bind it with fresh

meat "), shows us what words are lost at the beginning of 1. 3.These words occupy elsewhere from 4 to 6 cm., or an averageof 5 cm., and this space measured off here on the right ofFragments C D gives us a column 24.50 cm. wide. The parallelmaterial from Papyrus Ebers (99) would indicate that the loststrip was probably a little less than 4.25 cm. This is corro-borated by the beginnings of 11. 10-14. The length of the wordsto be restored at the beginning of 1. 10, established by measuringthem at the end of 1. 1, is 4 cm. At the beginning of 1. 11,the lost words are found again toward the end of the same line,where they are a trifle over 4 cm. long. In 1. 12 the lost wordsat the beginning are found also in 1. 10, where they measuresomething over 3 cm. It should be noticed that the loststrip from 1. 1 down to 1. 14 was wider at the top than at thebottom, as the measurements show. This is observable in thepreceding measurement of 1. 12; and again at the beginningof 1. 13, where the lost words, found again in II 12, occupya length of 3.50 cm. These calculations of the width of thelost strip at the right edge of Column I therefore indicate acolumn about 24.50 cm. wide as in P1. I B.

Turning to the greater loss in the lower right-hand quarter

of the column (below Fragments B C D), 11. 15-17 have alreadybeen discussed above; and 1. 18 cannot be restored. The lostfirst half of 1. 19 occurs again in II 12, where it measures a little

over 10 cm., a measurement which would place the right edgeof Column I very close to the position given it in Plate I B.

With the exception of the first four signs, the lost material in1. 20 occurs again in 1. 25. Allowing a normal amount of spacefor these lost four signs ( : g4 e), the gap was nearly 11 cm.long, placing the right edge of the column as shown in our

restoration (P1. I B). The restoration of 1. 21 is based on II 3and II 5, where the words lost in 1. 21 occupy about 10.25 cm.,

I These cases are: Case 7 (III 2); Case 8 (IV 5); Case 9 (IV 19);Case 11 (V 10); Case 12 (V 16); Case 17 (VII 1, Head of Column!);Case 21 (VIII 6); Case 23 (VIII 18); Case 32 (XI 1, Head of Column!);Case 35 (XII 3); Case 39 (XIII 3); Case 41 (XIII 18); Case 46 (XV 20).It may be noted, however, that there are four cases which the scribe might

that is a trifle less than in our restoration (P1. 1 B). The lost

words in 1. 22, recurring in IX 9-10, are 10.25 cm. long, that is

slightly shorter than in our restoration. A more surprismg

minimum, however, is indicated by 1. 23, where the lost words,

as found in II 7, occupy less than 9 cm., whereas our restoration

gives them about a centimeter more. The lacunae in 11.24 and 25

offer no material for assisting us, but 1. 26 may be built up from1. 20, 1. 25, and the latter part of 1. 26, with indications of no

shorter space than our restoration has given.In dealing with the contradictory nature of the above indica-

tions as to the width of Column I, it should be noted that spatial

variations in the writing of hieratic are considerable, and in-

crease with the size of the passage involved. Thus in I 15, the

phonetic signs in wbnw are twenty per cent. shorter than in

112. The scribe tends to reduce the scale of his writing towards

the ends of the lines, e. g., 11. 22-26. The decisive measurements

therefore, should, if possible, be those of the short lacunae at

the beginnings of the lines. In Column I these are especially

the beginnings of 11. 3-14, which indicate within rather narrow

limits the position of the right edge-a position which is

supported by the longer restorations in 11. 19-21 and 1. 26, and

should hardly be altered in deference to the evidence from

11. 22 and 23, favoring a slight shift to the left, and narrowing

the column, which the beginnings of 11. 3-14 show cannot be

done. Ll. 14-15 are also decisively against any furthernarrowing.

With regard to the unplaced fragments (P1. I, K to R), it is

possible that on Fragment M we have the signs _ belongingto the word - in 1.17. Above these signs on Fragment M

are probably the signs %/ = t of a verb in the hr-form whichwould belong to 1. 16 in a gloss. A hr-form, that is a prescriptiveform used in treatments and directions, would not properlyoccur in a gloss; and this seems a good reason for not placing

Fragment M in 11. 16-17.

b. The Restoration of the Lost Column and the Beginning

To some extent the restoration of the original might alsoinclude the lost column preceding Column I-that is, it mayat least involve discussing the beginning of Case 1, which

occupied the bottom lines of the lost column (see Vol. I,pp. 77-78). It is highly probable that in copying the discussionof the cases, the scribe would begin Case 1 at the beginning ofa line; for he preferred to begin even the later cases with a newline whenever conveniently possible. Out of the forty-sevencases, whose beginnings are preserved, the scribe began thirteenwith a new line.' Two of these (Cases 17 and 32) begin also

a new column. The probability that Case 1 began a new lineinvolves us in some difficulty when we observe that the restoredtext of the beginning of Case 1 (Volume I, pp. 78-89), precedingits continuance at the top of Column I (Pl. I B), in normal

easily have begun with a new line if he had wished. Thus Case 6 (II 17)begins only two signs away from the end of the line; Cases 16 (VI 17) and42 (XIV 16) only four signs from the end; and Case 43 (XIV 22) onlyfour signs from the beginning of a line.

hieratic would be about 43 to 54 cm. long.1 If in two completelines of some 22 cm. each, the width of the lost column wouldthus be only 22 cm.-a width not equal to that of the first fivecolumns and hence insufficient.

It is clear, however, that above these two, or parts of two,bottom lines, there must have been twenty-three or twenty-fourlines of hieratic text, containing an introduction or part of anintroduction, the nature and character of which we cannotsurmise. At the top of the column (or of some preceding columnif the introduction was longer), there must have been a title,presumably the one quoted in Papyrus Ebers (99, 1):

"Beginning of the Secret Book of the Physician " (see Volume I,pp. 107-8). Further than this we cannot carry the restorationof the lost beginning.

c. The Restoration of the Lost Conclusion

Toward the restoration of the lost conclusion (followingP1. XVII), it is impossible to do anything. Plate XVII exhibits(on the left edge) only a portion of the additional space on therecto left blank by the scribe when he stopped writing in themiddle of a line, the middle of a case, and the middle of asentence, in the nineteenth line of the column where the deepblack writing shows that he had just dipped his pen and loadedit heavily.

Before writing the last two signs (c), however, he had stoppedhis work for some time. When he resumed writing again andbegan with these signs, J~, his pen was dry and the two signswere much too pale to suit him. He dipped his pen again andheavily retraced the two signs with deep black. The retracingwas unsteadily done however, and his first pale lines can stillbe plainly discerned. He then laid down his overloaded pen,and as he laid aside the Surgical Treatise which he was copying,he left some 15z inches of his papyrus vacant and unwrittenat the left end of the strip.

d. The Incantations and Recipes on the Verso

In turning over the long sheet, he did not begin writing onthe back at the right-hand end but moved to the left, leavingat the right end a blank space of nearly 15 inches (39 cm.).This space, as already stated, is also blank on the front (follow-ing Column XVII). Without doubt it was the scribe's intentionto begin copying the new document on the verso directly on theback of Column XVII of the recto, leaving a space of some 31inches (78 cm.), about 15- inches on each side, between thematter on front and back. The Surgical Treatise was thusseparated from the magical hodge-podge which followed, notonly by being on a different side of the papyrus, but also by anintentionally inserted separating blank space of about thirty-one inches in length.

When the scribe later resumed copying, he had before hima conventional collection of incantations and recipes, which hebegan transcribing on the back of his strip of papyrus (oversixteen feet long). Here he copied sixty-five lines of this

magical hodge-podge in four columns (XVIII-XXI). Line 9of Column XXI was the last line written by the same unknownscribe who copied for us at least eighteen columns of theSurgical Treatise.

Beginning directly under line 8 of Column XXI, a probablylater and obviously much less skillful scribe copied the " Bookof Transforming an Old Man into a Youth" in twenty-threelines (XXI 9-XXI 10), which he followed with another recipein four lines (XXII 11-14), the last words of the Edwin SmithPapyrus.

2. THE HIEROGLYPHIC TRANSLITERATION

After the manuscript of Volume I had been handed to theprinter, Professor Eugene D6vaud of the University of Freiburg,Switzerland, kindly consented to autograph the twenty-threeplates of hieroglyphic transliteration, in accordance with thetext printed with the commentary in Volume I. Later he alsokindly agreed to draw the hieratic plate containing the restoredtext of Column I (P1. I B). For this timely assistance, whichhas resulted in a handsome and palaeographically faithfuldrawing of the restored text of Column I, as well as severalimproved readings, I am sincerely grateful. He for whom thesewords of appreciation were intended will unhappily never readthem. For not long after he had sent in his draughts of Plates Ito VI, Professor Devaud fell suddenly ill and died on Julynineteenth. It is a melancholy pleasure to express here a wordof tribute in grateful recognition of his faithfulness, his finescholarship and his unbounded devotion to science.

At this juncture Dr. W. Erichsen kindly consented to under-take the drawing of the hieroglyphic plates, and Plates II A toXXII A are his work. I take this occasion to express to himmy sincere thanks for his skillful and timely assistance. I amvery grateful also to the Editors of the Egyptian Dictionaryfor their kind consent that Dr. Erichsen's time, which belongedto the Dictionary, should be temporarily diverted to this task.The hieroglyphic transliteration of the mutilated first column,has been a rather complicated matter, and Devaud's drawings(Plates I A and I C) have therefore been retained. The torncondition of the column made it advisable, in drawing thehieroglyphic transliteration, to follow pretty closely the arrange-ment and disposition of the hieratic signs; for a sign near a tornmargin, if placed in the normal position for hieroglyphic, mightbe thrown entirely over the margin into a lacuna and thus seemto disappear; whereas in the hieratic it might stand on themargin and be clearly legible, at least in part. It did not seemnecessary to redraw these two complicated plates (I A and I C),merely for the sake of uniformity with Plates II A to XXII A.

In the hieroglyphic text of Column I on Plates I A and I C,the restored signs or portions of signs are drawn in dotted lines;and it should be noted that on Plate I A the only signs so re-stored are those of which a portion is actually preserved on thetorn margin. The justification for the extensive restorationsshown on Plate I C will be found in the discussion in Volume I

1 The total of 56 cm. given in Vol. I, p. 78 is a mismeasurement, and should be corrected as above.

THE ORIGINAL TEXT

(pp. 78 to 138). In the restoration of the last line (Plate I A orI C, 1. 26) it is to be noted that Fragment H has been shiftedslightly to the right (as compared with Plate I) in order to makeroom for fl of which a small part of the tail is visible on Frag-ment F, and it should of course be likewise shifted on Plate I.The remark is due to D6vaud. In this connection the readershould note that the " n " inserted in the text of the translitera-tion on Plates I A and I C is intended to call attention to thetextual notes accompanying the hieroglyphic text of Column Iin Volume I.

In such transliteration usage has varied in the case of certainsigns. The chief questionable transliterations, about whichthere is some difference of opinion, are the following:

or I and :; it should be noted that our document writes

. c (XVII 15) or (XVII 16). Hence the presenteditor has nearly always transliterated in Volume I.

Q is without any doubt the hieroglyphic form arising from theshortened hieratic form of j. To the present editor, therefore,Q seems the only correct transliteration in such cases.

o and a are not always consistently distinguished in ourpapyrus, but an effort has been made to distinguish them inthe transliteration.

The distinction between and = in Papyrus Smith isimportant. The question may be raised whether (1) the tickis used to indicate that the pronunciation is still t; or, (2) merelyas a diacritical mark to distinguish it from hieratic a or o. Ifthe latter were true, we could understand why, in PapyrusSmith, r never received the tick, were it not for the fact thatall seven occurrences in Papyrus Smith are accompanied by -.In forms without , the legs might have been regarded as a fullysufficient indication preventing any confusion with hieratic o.

With the exception of V and the ancient conventional writingS(see XVIII 18), ~= does not occur in Papyrus Smith,

which otherwise invariably employs =; although it may benoted that the sign is not of frequent occurrence. The examplesare trm " wink " (IV 3); tsy " lift " (II 1, X 21) ; tsw " stiff-ness " (I 20, 21, 26; II 6, 13, 15, 22; III 6); htt-t " shoulder "

(XVI 16, 17; XVII 1, 7, 11); tsw" lay prostrate " (XII 5, 11;XVII 19), a total of nineteen occurrences. In view of the fact

that in Papyrus Smith always has the tick (except in Vand the archaic " people "), the scribe of our document

presumably used the form to indicate the sound t. See theremarks of De Buck and Gardiner on this point (Gardiner,Grammar, p. xxvii). The above facts again demonstrate theclose affinity of our papyrus with Middle Kingdom documents.

It will be noted that - (Z 6) is always transliterated . Theconfusion of (Z 6) with , is due to a common misunder-standing (cf. Moeller's Palaeographie, I, No. 49 B). The enemyor captive (,) does not occur in Papyrus Smith.1

It should be noted that our document is inconsistent in theuse of a (D 26) the spewing mouth, and t (Aa 3). In ourtransliteration in Volume I it has sometimes been difficult todistinguish between the two. The plates in Volume II differ

slightly from the type, e.g. VIII 18.The word g o is commonly written with a peculiar sign

for which closely resembles the hieratic form of . It maywell be that this bird-like hieratic sign is another form of hieraticg; but in order to distinguish between the two hieraticforms, the peculiar sign has been transliterated V whereverit occurs.

It is not always possible to reproduce in hieroglyphic type allthe distinctions observable in the original manuscript. Thetransliteration plates being drawn by hand are in some detailsmore accurate than it is possible to be in type. This willaccount for some inconsistencies, as when, e. g., the text inVolume I has 1, whereas the plates sometimes have the knifewith blood dripping from the point. Conversely in the deter-minative of the human lips, the teeth should appear (as inVol. I) in Plates III A, 4; VA, 9; VI A, 8 and 13; VII A,13; and VIII A, 21.

Finally the transliteration plates have offered a convenientmeans of indicating the scribe's use of red ink for rubrics andcorrections. Obviously it has not always been possible todetermine accurately the extent of the rubrics in the restoredportions of Column I.

1 Sethe has also called attention to this error (Die Achtung, in Abhandlungen der Preussischen Akad., 1926, p. 62).
