Details A copper scroll comprised of two extant fragments. The material is very thin (some of the characters show through clearly on the back) and fragile, and some of it between the two fragments as well as along the margins is lost. The height above is for the estimated size of the whole original. There is a hole in the centre of the upper edge, suggesting that the scroll was bound.
