Abstract Publication of a fragmentary mummy shroud in a poor state of preservation because of fungi. The date is the 2nd century AD, the probable provenance is Thebes. It shows Osiris with atef crown and part of a text, tentatively identified as Peteisis. It forms a close parallel with a complete shroud in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (inv. 1913.924). A possible restoration is discussed as well.
