Diversity in the Desert: Daily Life in Greek and Roman Egypt
This online exhibit features texts from The University of Michigan Papyrus Collection that illustrate many aspects of daily life in Greek and Roman Egypt from the second century B.C.E. until the eighth century C.E. The exhibit not only gives an insight in the work of the people who study papyri, but also of those who conserve and restore papyri by showing telling images of papyri before and after conservation. This online presentation is a digital version of an exhibit that was mounted under the curation of Arthur Verhoogt, Associate Professor of Papyrology and Greek in the Department of Classical Studies, in the summer of 2007.
