        55 AD?  Surely RCD isn't that precise.  And where can I see a
facsimile?  :)

        I love how the Egyptian land preserves papyrus so well.  I
live in the hope that one day someone is going to dig up one of the 10
books of Sappho's poetry, and we'll finally have some complete poems.
Egypt seems the most likely place for this to happen.
