Announcements

  • The Zotero library underlying the CEToM bibliography is now public and can be viewed here.
  • We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Thomas Oberlies and Pratik Rumde from the Seminar für Indologie und Tibetologie of the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen for providing our project with scans of the nachlass of Wilhelm Siegling. The nachlass includes letters to and from Siegling throughout his career that are of great importance to the history of the field of Tocharian studies. This material will be published on CEToM, accompanied by transcriptions of the letters, in the course of 2024.

Commentary

Philological commentary

At the left of the verso, between lines b3 and b4, there is an illegible and unidentifiable piece. It seems that to the left of the leaf number a folded piece from the recto can be flapped back in reconstruction, but it is unclear how this should be read. Some kind of 1 is visible, and the right part of a vertical stroke as if from 30 or the like.

Remarks

According to Broomhead 1962a: 246 "[w]ritten in medium ductus, and very clearly preserved, it is the left edge of a large six line manuscript, with the number '152' or '153' on the verso". He also identifies this fragment as folios 45-46 (op.cit.).
