Edition of a small papyrus sheet with four medical recipes for the treatment of inflamed glands and of carbuncle, dating to the second half of the first century BCE - early first century CE. The recipe against carbuncle can be identified in a passage of Pliny the Elder’s Natural History, whereas the other recipes share similarities with preparations ascribed to the physician Apollonios Mys and with one prescription included in Aelius Promotus’ Dynameron.
