List by date or by topic?

[edit]

Wouldn't it be better to list papyri by topic rather than by date? Because dates are so uncertain, and because the original example of a given work may date hundreds of years before the extant copy, why does it make any sense to list them by their dates?

These two pages should be removed as they serve no real purpose anymore since a sortable list of papyri is available. - Andi d (talk) 05:57, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
