Medical recipe (Ο.Βodl. II 2188) written on the back of an
<emph rend="italics">ostrakon</emph>
. The ingredients (calamine, opium, tragacanth, aloe) point to an eye-salve. The heading of the recipe occupied ll. 2-4, where the terms λευκώματα and σταφυλώματα (see Medicalia Online
<emph rend="italics">s.v.</emph>
<ref target="http://www.papirologia.unipr.it/CPGM/medicalia/vocab/index.php?tema=21">σταφύλωμα</ref>
) can be restored. The front preserves traces of a documentary text, likely an household account or a cooking recipe.

<note type="footnote" xml:lang="en">This papyrus has been digitally edited by Isabella Bonati, with former contributions by Giulia Saccani, as part of the Project "DIGMEDTEXT - Online Humanities Scholarship: A Digital Medical Library based on Ancient Texts" (ERC-AdG-2013, Grant Agreement no. 339828) funded by the European Research Council at the University of Parma (Principal Investigator: Prof. Isabella Andorlini). The digital edition is mostly based on the previous editions (ed.pr. = C. Préaux, O.Bodl. II 2188v; ed.alt. = C. Préaux, CE 31, 1956, pp. 146-8). Revised by Nicola Reggiani in the framework of the PRIN 2017 Project "Greek and Latin Literary Papyri from Graeco-Roman and Late Antique Fayum (4th BC – 7th AD): Texts, Contexts, Readers" funded by the Italian Ministry of Research (P.I.

Bitter aloes (
<emph rend="italics">Aloe vera</emph>
L.) is a plant of
<emph rend="italics">Liliaceae</emph>
. The perfumed wood of aloes yields a volatile oil and decays into a resin used in making incense and applied as a topical substance in skin care products. The dried plant juice of various species of aloes was recommended by ancient pharmacologists for its astringent properties – it is rich in tannin, and therefore good for staunching wounds. For
