Excerpt from The Amherst Papyri, Vol. 1: Being an Account of the Greek Papyri in the Collection of the Right Hon. Lord Amherst of Hackney, F. S. An; At Didlington Hall, Norfolk The Greek Papyri preserved at Didlington Hall form probably the most important private 'collection of this kind which has yet been made. Though small in comparison with the vast numbers of papyri which have been acquired by many of the chief museums in Europe, Lord Amherst's collection possesses the rare distinction of being thoroughly representative of the different classes and periods of Greek writing in Egypt, since it contains a number of important theological and classical fragments besides many well preserved documents of the Ptolemaic, Roman, and Byzantine times. With the exception of those described on page 66 of Mr. P. E. Newberry's publication of Lord Amherst's Egyptian papyri, the Greek papyri have been bought for Lord Amherst by us at various places in Egypt during the last three years.
