Samenvatting
This volume publishes 534 new Demotic graffiti recorded at the temple of Isis on Philae Island, presented with drawings and photographs. An essay interprets the role of the graffiti in understanding the political and religious activities at Philae during the last centuries of worship of the goddess Isis by Nubian priests and pilgrims.
