The Global Egyptian Museum

The Museum of Brussels preserves seven fragments of a "volumen" which contained the first and second song of the "Odyssey", the second epic of Homer. This luxury edition, which would have been about seven metres in length, counts 18 columns of 24 verses. The columns were wider (about 30cm) than they were higher. The "volumen" comes from the town of Oxyrhynchus (P. Oxy IV 773) and dates from the 4th century of our time.
