Family Archives from Elephantine The Evidence from the Ostraka
Shereen Abdelghany Aly;
Abstract
The majority of Greek ostraca from Egypt, and from Elephantine in particular, are tax receipts.
The huge number of names which come up in these texts provide the opportunity to reconstruct family
archives enhancing our knowledge of various aspects of the prosopography and sociology of
Elephantine. Two small families are documented here through one already known, and three newly
published ostraca from the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
