Plate II (Cols. iv-v).

That Satyric Drama should be represented by but a single play, and that too by the youngest of the three great tragedians, has often been deplored. A specimen by Aeschylus, commonly reckoned the greatest exponent of the art (Diog. Laert. ii. 133, Pausan. ii. 13. 5), or of Pratinas, might have been a more welcome gift, but in presenting us with the considerable remains here published of the Ichietitae of Sophocles, fortune does something to remove a reproach
and to

Whether Apollodorus used any source other

Apart, however, from the musical interests of the poet, for the purposes drama the theme was well chosen. There was a strong element of comedy in the thievish and lying propensities of the infant god, which, according to the Homeric Hymn, provoked Zeus himself to great laughter and we may surmise that it was in the later scenes, when the mischievous

was confronted with the indignant Apollo, that the humour of the was chiefly developed. So far as the papyrus extends there is nothing so amusing as the scene in the Cyclops where Silenus acts as cup-bearer to Polyphemus. The imitation by the Satyrs of dogs upon the scent no doubt lent itself to fun of a rather boisterous kind, though there is throughout much not that Sophocles' Satyric less coarseness than in the drama of Euripides plays were always above reproach in this respect. Small comic touches are also noticeable here and there, such as the comparison of the Chorus starting on the search to colonists setting out for new lands (iv. 17), or the invitation which seems to be addressed by Silenus to the spectators to give information (iv. 5).

In the matter of language the Ichneutae falls fairly into line with conclusions previously formulated concerning the Satyric drama, which occupied an intermediate position between tragedy and comedy.

the Silenus and Satyrs of Sophocles show more restraint in language as well
as in sentiment than those of Euripides.

This observation can be extended also to the metre, and the common doctrine concerning the Satyric trimeter must be applied to Sophocles with some reserve. Resolution is indeed commoner than in the tragedies. Statistics collected by A. Mancini, // dramma satirico, pp. 83 sqq., show for the fragments
of Sophoclean Satyric

Line 1 4 of Col. iv, which is marked as the looth verse, is indeed not more than the 94th from this point, and possibly a foregoing column, of which the upper part was occupied e.g. by a hypothesis or a list of characters, has been lost ; but the numeration of lines in papyri is not always exact, and if iv. 20, 22, &c., are counted as whole lines, the figure 200 atviii. 13 is but one in excess, with i. i as the starting-point. Apollo's name ought then to occur in 1. 3. ear may have stood in 1. 4, but the 4-5. Something like [oetj^joi' restoration depends upon that of the next verse.

18-23. That these two small fragments belong to Col. i is clearly indicated both by their appearance and contents, but their relation to each other and to the rest of the column is not definitely fixed. The worm-eaten edges of both show the same pattern, according to which should be in the same line as e]neiTa [Se. But the worming is not an infallible guide, since the papyrus may not have been folded quite straight and if is right in 1. 23, it is desirable to lengthen the interval between this and the foregoing ej/reira [5e. This being granted, a further comparison of the worm-marks in Col. iii suggests that there is no loss between 11. 17 and 18 ; the adscript of which a few letters remain In the left margin of Col. ii will then be opposite 1. 22, and the loss below 1. 23 will extend to four verses, in which no doubt Attica was mentioned.

The letters tc^ are on a small fragment which no doubt belongs to one of the first three columns, and must on account of the paragraphi come from the bottom of Col. ii ; its location in this line is, however, quite conjectural. If it is rightly placed, Fr. i will follow below, though whether in 24-5 or 25-6 cannot be determined. 26. The papyrus is broken close beneath this line, but it was most probably the last of the column, since it ranges with iii. 27, and the dialogue works out right on the supposition of the loss of a line at the top of Col. iii.

Yet your father, ye vilest of beasts, is one by whose youthful prowess many trophies have been set up at the homes of his brides, Avho was not wont to turn in flight nor be subdued nor to cower at the noises of hill-fed herds, but did deeds of strength. And their lustre is now disfigured by you at some new cheating noise of shepherds, which you fear like children before seeing its source, abandoning the hope of golden wealth which Phoebus told of and secured, and the freedom which he promised both to you and me ; this you neglect, and sleep. If you do not pursue and track down the kine and their driver to their hiding-place, you shall make a noise in lamentation for your very cowardice. Chor.

suggested that view was the coincidence that ]vos in the third line of the scholium is on a level has been altered to and hence a marginal variant iyeKr|vos on an ; original iye\r]ivov would be very natural. The further possibility then presented itself that the mutilated first word in xv. 16 might beee^o$, to which 1. 1 of the scholium would refer. To this, however, there are grave palaeographical objections, for even if the exiguous traces were consistent with ], as I think they are not, the space between these letters and is too narrow for as ordinarily written. That would stand slightly below 1. 16 is a minor matter. When to these external considerations are added (i) the wide difference which would have to be supposed between the variant and the text, if referred to 1. 16, and (2) the difficulty urged by W-M, that more than the 10- 11 lines which would intervene between xv. 22 and xvii. 5 seem to be needed to bring about the discomfiture of the nymph, who is still stoutly maintaining her position at the end of Col. xv and might be expected to make a speech of some length before her disappearance, the case for the combination of Cols, xv and xvi cannot seriously be defended. Whether more than a single column of text intervened between Col. xv and Col. xvii is indeterminable ; but it is well to make the gap as slight as possible, and quite legitimate to suppose that Cols, xv

;

like that of the Rhesus, and there is no difficulty in attributing such a scene to the present play, for which the story of the death of Eurypylus by itself perhaps

hardly provided sufficient material. On the other hand, since the connexion of the scene with that story is not clear, and the evidence of the script is indecisive, the attribution of Fr. 91 and the associated smaller pieces to the Eurypylus must be made with a certain reserve. Fr. 95, which contains some colourless reflections

on the

instability of fortune, gives

no

assistance.

In addition to the lection-signs noted in connexion with 1174, a curved ligature connecting parts of words is twice used (Fr, 5. ii. 3, iii. 11 cf. e.g. 841,
;

862, 1082).

This

is

the

complement of the

diastole,

employed

to separate

words, which occurs

in several places (Fr. 3. 4, Fr. 5.

10, 11, Fr. 6. 13).

An

oxytone word is sometimes given an acute accent on the of a grave on the penultimate (Fr. 5. ii, 24, iii. 11 cf, 1082.

;

These fragments fall into two main groups. Frs. 37-9, which form the nucleus of the whole, are closely associated, Fr. 38 perhaps joining Fr. 39 immediately, and
Fr. Q,'] preceding at not more than a short interval Frs. 40-57 are some scraps which accompanied these larger pieces. Nos. 1-36, on the other hand, are miscellaneous fragments which were found sporadically some time before the main group made its appearance. Since Fr. 39 contains the end of the roll, Frs. 1-36 will naturally precede. Frs. 1-8 are put together as apparently all concerned with the style of Euripides. In Fr. 8. ii. 9 sqq. this subject is dismissed and the writer passes on to consider his character, which is also the subject of Fr. 9 and perhaps of Frs. lo-ii also. The arrangement of the rest is for the most part arbitrary Frs. ^'^-6 are more akin in external appearance to Frs. 37-8 than the preceding pieces, the colour of which is generally lighter. The MS. appears to date from the middle or latter part of the second century. It is in a small upright hand of the informal type shown also in 221, 853, the Herodas papyrus, and especially 666, which has other points of resemblance to 1176 (see below) all these probably belong to about the same period. There is some tendency to cursive forms, e. g. in the letters e and . A curious feature is the frequent doubling of strokes, which may be partly due to the use of an inferior pen. The common angular sign is often added at the end of short lines, while in longer ones the final letter is sometimes interlineated. Stops in three positions (low rarely) are used besides paragraph!, and there are two or three accents (Fr. 2. i. 14, Fr. '^9,. 21, Fr. 39. xv. 37) and a doubtful rough breathing (Fr. 33. i. 21). All these signs, as well as the few corrections which occur, are to be credited to the original writer there is nowhere any indication of a second hand. This absence of revision is regrettable, since the text is clearly erratic. In two places suspicious blanks occur (Fr. 39. x. 34, xi. 6-7),

would then have been on is not much less than what is a scale similar to that of 666, where the columns, as here, are very narrow and closely packed and extend to about fifty-seven lines. The scripts of that papyrus and of 1176, as remarked above, also show a strong resemblance. Concerning the author little is known. He is described as a Peripatetic (e. g. Athen. xii. p. 541 c), and lived not later than the reign of Ptolemy Philometor (B. c. 181-146), .since his Lives were epitomized by Heraclides Lembus {F. H. G. It may iii. p. 69), Avho is stated by Suidas to have lived under that monarch. be noted as a curious coincidence that Heraclides, whom Suidas calls probably resided in the city from whose ruins the present papyrus was obtained. Besides the Lives, which were Satyrus' best-known work, a book Jlept of which a single fragment is preserved (Athen. iv. p. 168 e), is with probability credited to him. Wilamowitz {Hermes xxxiv. pp. 633-4) has shown reason for referring him to the third century B. c. rather than the second, and would identify him with the writer of the treatise on the Alexandrian demes

of ii. p. 94), which is apparently a product of the reign This date for the biographer is accepted by Leo {Griech.-Rom.

embassy to Rome by the whose identification with the composer of the Lives was proposed by C. Miiller {F. H. G. iii. p. 159). An authority on precious stones, who is thrice referred to by Pliny {N. H. xxvii. 11, 24-5), and was very likely, though not certainly, a poet, does not need to be taken into consideration. But the Satyrus who collected ancient myths (Dion. might very well be our Hal. A.

'

'

But whatever the other writings of Satyrus may have been, the biographies, which are repeatedly cited by Athenaeus and Diogenes Laertius, were the work These biographies are commonly to which he chiefly owed his reputation. the more formal title is given by the papyrus, alluded to as oi They included monarchs (Dionysius the Younger, Philip), statesmen and generals
;

(Alcibiades), orators (Demosthenes), philosophers (the seven sages, Pythagoras,

Empedocles, Zeno of Elea, Anaxagoras, Socrates, Plato, Diogenes, Anaxarchus, Stilpo), and poets (Sophocles, and, as we now know, Aeschylus and Euripides). division into books was proved by references to the fourth book, which dealt with philosophers though these may well have occupied more books than one. The sixth book, as the papyrus shows, treated of poets, and further books Most of the extant citations, which have been collected, perhaps followed. though not quite exhaustively, by Miiller (F. H. G. iii. pp. 160 sqq. cf. Wilamowitz, op. cit., p. 633^, Leo, op. cit., pp. 120 sqq.), are quite short, but two considerable verbal excerpts are given by Athenaeus (Sat. Frs. i and 3), and indicated

a writer with considerable pretensions to literary style. While confirming this impression, the papyrus reveals an unexpected and surprising fact the life of Euripides is in the form of a dialogue. The fact is indubitable, although the
:

copyist has failed to bring


interlocutors

it out by distinguishing clearly the parts of the by means of the double dots which are commonly employed in

works of a dramatic cast. There are at least three speakers, of whom two, Diodorus (Fr. 39. iii. 19, xv. 13), and Eucleia, a woman (Fr. 39. xiv. 31), are named. These latter persons play a subordinate part the name assigned to the chief speaker, into whose mouth the main narrative is put, is not mentioned. Presumably the present Life is a fair sample of the others, and the inference is to be drawn that they had a similar shape. The method is a singular one to apply to biography. It emphasizes at the outset the nature of Satyrus' work, which, like that of other biographers of the Peripatetic school, was essentially popular in its aim, and endeavoured to supply interesting information in an attractive shape.

Another formal feature, which is not less characteristic of the writer's school (cf. Wilamowitz, /. c, p. 6^^, Leo, /. c, pp. 104 sqq.), is the wealth of quotations, both from Euripides and elsewhere. It is easy to understand why in the next generation, with the growth of a more strictly scientific spirit, the biographies of Satyrus were reduced by Heraclides to an epitome they were much too diffuse for a handy book of reference. Their style is smooth and pleasant, and care is shown in a general avoidance of hiatus, though the rule is by no means consistently observed. Very likely the apparent exceptions are less the fault of the
:

author than of his transcribers, but drastic measures would be required to eliminate some of them (e.g. Fr. 39. xiv. 30-1), and the safer course is to allow

of their apparent source, and the want of cohesion conspicuous in the Vivos

becomes still further evident. But not only is authority now assignable for several statements about the poet which were previously anonymous and their antiquity definitely ascertained; Thus the papyrus also makes some contributions of its own to the material. Cleon (Fr. 39. x. 15-20, we are told that Euripides was prosecuted for impiety by and note), that his retirement from Athens was partly due to irritation with certain poets, whose names are given (Fr. 39. xv. 26 sqq.), and that he composed the exordium of the Persae for Timotheus (Fr. 39. xxii. 27-30). There are moreover some substantial additions to the Fragments of his poetry, as well as a few improvements in the text of others already extant.

The copy of the Phoenissae of which this fragment gives the bottoms of two columns was written on the verso of the papyrus in a somewhat crabbed and irregular upright hand which is clearly quite early in date. On the recto is some cursive writing apparently of the first century B. C, and above this for the sake of support strips of other documents have been pasted, one of which is dated in the reign of Augustus. This evidence combines with that of its own script to place the literary text of the verso somewhere near the commencement of the Christian era. When verses were divided between speakers, the several parts were written in separate lines, as in 1174. Lyrical verses seem to have been distinguished by slight indentation.

compressed version of the longer form, and the shorter form which is found in P. Berlin 7094 has a group of mediaeval MSS. and is here added in the margin

Lastly, whereas in both the Berlin papyri is alone given (11. 20-7). immediately followed by Ep. 11, in 1184 there succeeds (11. 28-33) a letter to Gorgias which apparently occurs nowhere else but has coincidences of phraseology with Ep. 6, which is addressed to Demetrius.

This papyrus contains a mutilated report of arrears of military supplies

is

the identity of the praefect.

is another possibility), usage requires that, where brevity was desired, and not the second of the two prior names should be omitted. Moreover, that usage is followed in the case of this particular man in P. Amh. 72. 10 and 81. 5, as well as in an unpublished Oxyrhynchus text, where he is called simply Valerius Firmus. An identification with the praefect of A. D. 346-7 is therefore unsatisfactory, and I prefer to suppose that Claudius Firmus was the praefect plerique Graeconim alteram tradwit, mentioned by Vopiscus, Firmus, 3 igfiari eo ipso tempore tres fuisse Firmos^ quorum unus praefectus Aegypti, alter dux limitis Africani idemqtie proconsule, tertius iste Zenobiae amicus ac socius. Eo ipso tempore means the period of the Palmyrene war in the reign of Aurelian an unpublished Berlin papyrus (P. 1463), the knowledge of which I owe to Wilcken's kindness, fortunately fixes the date of Firmus' tenure more precisely. The document, a fragmentary petition, is dated in the twelfth year of Gallienus (a.D. 264-5), and in 1. 5 a reference occurs to [(]. Our praefect is accordingly to be placed between Aurelius Theodotus (a.D. 262: P. Strassb. 5) and Juvenius Genialis (A.D. 266-7). Whether he was after all, in spite of Vopiscus, the same person as the alleged usurper, as maintained by P. Meyer {Hermes xxxiii. pp. 268 sqq.) and Homo {Aurelien, p. 113, n. 2), is a further question which need not here be considered. It is curious, however, that in the inscription upon which the former relied (N^routsos, Inscr. dAlexaiidrie,

and Jouguet, La vie municipale, pp. 150 from the father of a youth complaining that his son's name had been qualified to become an ephebus, omitted from the list which was annually prepared by the amphodogrammateus, and begging that the error might be rectified. The list in question is stated to have been regularly prepared shortly before the time of the contest of the ephebi, established at Oxyrhynchus by Septimius Severus and Caracalla (11. 5 sqq.).

That senatorial rank brought release from local mwiera is well known (cf. Dig. It was not however clear that this privilege was enjoyed by those whose dignity was merely honorary cf. Mommsen, Rom. Staatsrecht, iii. p. 473* bei einer Person bloss senatorischen Standes, die ausserhalb Rom wohnt, kann

Plutarchus, excellency, having been summoned, Isidorus said, " His excellency Plutarchus who has presented himself before your eminence, endeavouring to find for himself a release from municipal offices, some time ago besought the divine fortune of our masters the Augusti and Caesars to grant him the rank of excellency, and their divine fortune consented and granted Now he has continued in obedience to your lordship's department it, and he now enjoys it. and also to the orders of you magnates. Lately when he was in the Small Oasis, where he had been sent by my lord your colleague Publius the most honourable praefect to discharge the soldiers, a certain Demetrianus, an Oxyrhynchite of the same city, made a design upon him and ventured to nominate him for the decemprimate, ignoring his acquisition of After other a superior r^nk, which presumably releases him from municipal offices". evidence Domnus the most honourable catholicus said, " Read the day of his appointment ".

promises that the boy shall be his heir. Apparently there was no affinity between the contracting parties, nor is there any obvious reason for the adoption as in the Leipzig text, where an uncle adopts his fatherless nephew. Another small point
of contrast is the absence here of stipulations about proper food and clothing, which are replaced by the negative guarantee that the boy should not be repudiated or reduced to a state of servitude. These however are minor details the important feature from the juristic standpoint is that the transaction is regarded as a purely private affair, the forms prescribed at this period by Roman law, the sanction of an imperial rescript and the intervention of the praefect {C. Just. viii. 47. 2), being in complete abeyance, and that the participators are not concerned with any constitution oi p atria potestas (although, as 1208. 6 shows, that was not quite a dead letter in the provinces), but simply with the upbringing and eventual testamentary succession of the adopted child cf.

is obscure. very low value of the shown by this passage points to a late date in the fourth century. Other fourth-century equations cited by Wessely, AUersindiz. im Philogelos, pp. 32-3, are 62, 72, and myriads to the solidus; but a papyrus which he attributes to the fourth or fifth century (p. 46) gives a and 1133. 8-9 shows that in the year 396 a.d. 600 myriads were considerably less than four solidi, and in the light of the present passage it is more probable that they were really less than one. implies that the value of the had lately been relatively higher.
