In the early Ptolemaic period the agricultural area expanded a great deal, new villages were founded and many Greeks settled here. When villages on the outskirts were abandoned about AD 300-400, houses and cemeteries remained intact for centuries. Here were found thousands of papyri, ostraca (potsherds) and hundreds of mummy portraits, which have made the area famous among classicists and art historians alike. Most papyri and ostraca are now scattered over collections all over the world. The sixth volume of Collectanea Hellenistica presents 145 reconstructed archives originating from this region, including private, professional, official and temple archives both in Greek and in native Demotic. 650 0 $a Egyptian language $v Papyri, Demotic. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85041343 650 0 $a Manuscripts, Greek (Papyri) $z FayyuÌm. $z FayyuÌm. 651 0 $a FayyuÌm (Egypt) $x Antiquities. 651 0 $a Egypt $x History $y Greco-Roman period, 332 B.C.-640 A.D. $v Sources. 650 0 $a Archives $z FayyuÌm. $z FayyuÌm. 700 1 $a Clarysse, Willy, $e author. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80147263 700 1 $a Verreth, Herbert, $e author. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2001073142 700 1 $a Azzarello, Giuseppina, $e contributor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2012075053 710 2 $a Koninklijke Vlaamse Academie van BelgieÌ voor Wetenschappen en Kunsten, $e issuing body. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no00051851 830 0 $a Collectanea hellenistica ; $v 6. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n93010181 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210024304.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DB997486E7AF11E78369235E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
