SIMONIDES PAPERS. Correspondence and papers of and relating to Constantine Simonides, the forger, collected by John Eliot Hodgkin, the antiquary; 1821-1868. The correspondence is largely concerned with papyri
and MSS. which Simonides claimed to have acquired in the Near East or to have discovered in the Egyptological collections of Joseph Mayer, F.S.A., of Liverpool, and also with his claim to have written the Codex Sinaiticus. An account of Simonides, based partly on the present papers, is given by J. A. Farrer, Literary Forgeries, 1907, pp. 34-66. For other literature regarding Simonides see the bibliography in W. R. Dawson, Who was Who in Egyptology, 1951, p. 148; K. I. Duovouniotes, "Néos Hellenomnemon", xvii, 1923, pp. 40-52; N. S. Phirippides, "Simonideia, 'Ekklesiastikos Pharos" , xxx, 1931, pp. 1-19 (of reprint); I. T. Pampoukes, "Epeteris Hetaireias Buzantinon Spoudon", xxiii, 1953, pp. 716-721; A. N. L.
