Commentary
Philological commentary
| Couvreur 1955: 116 stated without further discussion that this fragment is a parallel to THT 497, but except for commonplace phrases there is no specific match between them apart from the fact that both contain medical formulas. Consequently, recto and verso cannot be ascertained. |
|---|
| n1 | Since this is an archaic text, we would expect mälkwer, so one has to assume a spelling with ‹mä›. |
|---|
| n2 | sacchaṣṣa witsäko recurs in Or 6402A 1.2 a4 as saccaṣṣa witsako. |
|---|
Remarks
| A small fragment from the middle of a leaf; recto and verso side cannot be determined. |
