Inventory Catalog of the Papyri Collection at the Center for Judaic Studies of the University of Pennsylvania


This is a work in progress, coordinated by Robert A. Kraft (Professor of Religious Studies),
based on a preliminary inventory created in 1994 under the direction of Jenni Sheridan and presented, along with digitized images on CD-ROM and corresponding photographs, to Robert Kraft on his 60th birthday by his graduate students.
For a brief history of the collection see Kraft....
[revised blue project booklet (1994)]
update 08/16/96 [8/11/98] rak

The papyri have been assigned archival numbers as follows: in first position (col 1), the page number of the mylar container in which the papyri were found already mounted in 1994, followed by "." and the number of the papyrus on the page -- numbers begin at the top left-hand corner of the page and continue vertically by rows. Adhesive labels were also attached to each fragment for the photographing process. After each number, the indicator "-" or "|" has been added to indicate the direction of the writing: "-" along the fibers (horizontally) or "|" against the fibers (perpendicular).

A renumbering will be needed as joins between some fragments are found and the collection is conserved better and organized more consistently (e.g. by language). [Much reorganization has already been done by Kraft in July-August 1996, and it continues.]

NOTE: microfilm 1A.31x seems to contain all or most of the fragments mounted as pp. 1-3, while microfilm 1A.71x contains most or all of the fragments mounted on p. 4. [Does this tell us anything about the acquisition of the materials? Probably not, since there are joins between materials on pp.1-4 and elsewhere.]

[There are 132 separate frgs, by count taken by Kraft on 5 August 1998, including some blank, plus "PReich #1" consisting of 3 Greek pieces (= 135), plus a separate Coptic codex treated as a unit (= 136).
