Notes: 

"The Petra Papyri series is the scholarly publication meticulously documenting, translating and interpreting the information recovered from approximately 140 carbonized papyrus scrolls found in 1992 during ACOR's excavation of the Petra Church ... The Petra papyri texts are often dated--ca. 537 to 594-thanks to the law promulgated by the Byzantine Emperor Justinian to place the date at the beginning and end of a document."
