Description: Since the texts were not registered as a group, it remains uncertain if they all belong to the archive. With this archive was perhaps found part of Sarapion's library, but these 50 literary texts have now been omitted from the archive (this group of texts can be found in the LDAB by searching in the field Library for “Breccia, Kom Ali Gamman”). Our list is based on Houston, GRBS 47 (2007), p. 341-345, and his note on p. 346.
