Damaged fragment reveals rare Homeric artifact

An ancient fragment of Homer's "Odyssey" was discovered in Utrecht University's library, where it had remained unnoticed for decades. The fragment, dating from the 3rd or 4th century A.D., contains passages from Book 12 and was likely owned by someone in Egypt’s Fayum region. Experts believe it may have been part of a small anthology or private collection rather than a complete copy of the epic, which would require significantly more material.
