A new volume, edited by Klaas Bentein, on the framing of everyday communication in ancient documents, esp. papyri. Some really interesting chapters: given my own interests, I'd note Cattafi and Bruno's chapters in particular!

A new volume from the excellent William J. Johnson, on "Punctuation, Iota Adscript, and Nu-movable in Ancient Literary Bookrolls," published in the Trismegistos Online Pubs series (scroll to the bottom). Plus he has plans for a more open-access website with a lot of the data (and more)!

New papyri from Tebtunis! Every volume in the P.Tebt. series is a gem (though I'm unsurprisingly partial to volume 2) and this one has some great stuff for the literature, Ptolemaic, and Roman enthusiasts alike.
