Note 260 — Chapter II · THE ALEXANDRIAN DIVINITIES (continued 2)
Reading edition
These fragments are scattered among the different European museums. Some are in the Vatican Library and were published by Mgr. Angelo Mai in 1833 (Brunet de Presle, “Les Papyri Grecs du Louvre,” Mém. de l’Acad. des Inscript. XVIII. pt 2 (1865), p. 16), others in the Leyden Museum (Leemans, Papyri Graeci, I. pp. 6 sqq.), others in the Louvre (Brunet de Presle, op. cit. p. 22), and the largest number in the British Museum (Kenyon, Greek Papyri, p. 1). The whole story, so far as it has been ascertained, is told by Brunet de Presle, op. cit. pp. 261-263, and by Sir Frederic Kenyon, op. cit. pp. 1-5, and the questions arising out of it are admirably summed up by M. Bouché-Leclercq in his article, “Les Reclus du Sérapéum de Memphis” in Mélanges Perrot, Paris, 1903, p. 17.
