P.Oxy. 3 413

22.9 x 42.3

Farce and Mime

(2nd century)

Both sides of this remarkable papyrus are occupied with literary compositions of an unusual type. On the recto are three columns of a low comedy or farce, the dramatis personae being carefully distinguished and stage directions added. On the verso are, firstly, part of a mime, which is mainly a monologue, and secondly another column of dialogue in the style of the recto, involving the same characters, but written in a different hand.
