Description

A reality of archaeological fieldwork is that papyri are often found and excavated by archaeologists or papyrologists who have limited experience in the conservation of papyrus.00The aim of this small, practical booklet is to provide those who find themselves in this situation with some simple, yet effective, methods for how to treat, document and store freshly excavated papyri to minimise the risk of damage to them.00The procedures outlined here are mainly based on the conservation practices employed by the Franco-Italian mission directed by Claudio Gallazzi at the site of Tebtunis (Umm el-Breigât), as well as in the Papyrus Carlsberg Collection at the University of Copenhagen, as well as from advice and knowledge gleaned by the authors from colleagues working in the field over the years.00These methods have been successfully applied to numerous papyri in various states of preservation, from threadbare or semi-rotted fragments to nearly intact manuscripts, and are suitable for the treatment of most papyri found during excavations in Egypt.00The small size and dirt-resistant material used to print the booklet make it a very practical field guide for anyone working on Egyptian excavations.
