Virgil, Aeneid III, 444-468, with Greek translation (4th-5th century A.D.) This large fragment of papyrus carries verses 444-456 on the verso and 456-468 on the recto of Aeneid III, with a Greek translation running on a parallel column. The papyrus is in a bad state of conservation. Most probably the page comes from a codex. The hand, in both languages, is a practiced cursive, assignable to the 4th-5th century.
