The animals of the Artemidor Papyrus

The animals of the Artemidor PapyrusThe Artemidorus papyrus, originating from Alexandria, contains on its verso sketches of 45 animal species, thereof 15 from India. The present volume, an expanded and revised edition of the German edition, tries to prove that the animals were brought by King Poros of Gujarat as gifts for Emperor Augustus in the year 20 BC. Starting from this consideration, a date for the genesis of the papyrus at the end of the 1st century BC is suggested.
