The aim of this work is to investigate how in Roman Egypt, double names were used by the local elite to promote their social status. Polyonymy (i.e. the use of multiple names) is found in Egyptian texts as early as the Old Kingdom, and during the Ptolemaic period the practice is adopted in Greek environments as well. At this time, double names generally combined a Greek and an Egyptian name and reflected the complexity of ethnic identity in Ptolemaic society. It is in the Roman period, however, that numbers rise spectacularly--from roughly 1% at the beginning of Roman rule, to over 6%, peaking under the Severans. This upsurge of double names was triggered for a reason--a study of the phenomenon may paint a picture of the ideals and aspirations underlying this choice.

This book contains the edition of texts from the archive of Kleon and Theodoros, the engineers who were responsible for the upkeep of the large scale irrigation system in the Fayum during the reigns of Ptolemy II and III between 260 and 237 BC. The Kleon archive is contemporaneous with the famous Zenon archive and offers a window on the same society from a different angle. The edition contains the texts with translation and commentary of 124 Greek papyri, of which 37 are published here for the first time; for the others there are numerous new readings and interpretations. The former edition in the Petrie papyri was over a hundred years old, difficult to consult and in need of revision. In the new edition papyrological studies of the last century are incorporated, and the persons are situated in their historical context, including a royal visit to the province in 253 BC.0

Philae, Kom Ombo, Edfou, Esna et Dendara sont les temples de la période gréco-romaine (entre 300 av. J.-C. et 300 ap. J.-C.) les plus visités. Leurs parois sont couverts de textes, contrairement aux prestigieux sanctuaires de Karnak, de Médinet Habou ou d'Abydos, et fournissent les clefs interprétatives de ces derniers. Les hiérogrammates de Ptolémée ou de César ont transmis cette exégèse en exploitant des archives millénaires et en poussant à ses limites extrêmes les possibilités quasi infinies de l'écriture hiéroglyphique. Les monuments religieux égyptiens tardifs ne seraient que d'assez lourdes masses de pierre s'ils n'entretenaient pas, par leur décor et leurs textes, le souvenir du pharaon-dieu qui, fort de sa légitimité et grâce à sa double nature - divine et humaine -, perpétue la vie dans le vieux pays. Le populaire était certes convié, en quelques rares occasions, à manifester sa piété à la fois profonde et naïvement triviale; la splendeur de la conception intellectuelle, où le divin est exalté de manière érudite sur des murs porteurs de l'écriture la plus subtilement suggestive, constitue cependant l'apanage exclusif des «initiés dans le temple».
