A: Four fragments of varying size from a papyrus roll, written on one side along the fibres. On the front, each fragment preserves the middle of a column. The back bears traces of plaster of the painted decoration. Another fragment of the same roll has been published as P.Hib. I 11 and is now at the Bodleian Library in Oxford.
