• Liverpool United Kingdom University Library Class. Gr. Libr. 428

Origin uncertain, presumably Egypt. Found at Oxyrhynchus. The scarcely legible words on the papyrological recto have been deciphered by experts as λοιποί παραχωρ[.

Script, written across the fibres, is later Roman cursive, more properly semi-cursive, a good specimen of its kind, though a writing exercise: a is made without lifting the pen, the two branches like filled-in loops; c rises well above the line; e with the detached upper curve and hasta resembling small c occurs—as in Greek; g, m, n, and s approach the half-uncial.
