Title: Papyrus Amherst 63
Description: "This book offers a transliteration and translation of a text that has long been referred to as a 'mystery papyrus.' The scribes of Papyrus Amherst 63 used the Demotic script to put down in writing a compilation of Aramaic texts. This unusual combination of script and language necessitates the collaboration of scholars from different disciplines. Since the papyrus is not a merely linguistic puzzle but a challenge too in terms of its religious and historical background, no scholar is likely to singlehandedly solve the enigmas of the text"--acknowledgements.
