Abstract
For the upcoming volume of Jacoby’s Fragmente der griechischen Historiker continued, vol. IV.A, fasc. 8 on anonymous biography, Chiara Meccariello and I have prepared a new edition of P.Oxy. XV 1800, soon to be published as FGrHist 1139.1 In this article I present the most remarkable findings that emerged from my part of the work on the papyrus. In the course of the re-examination, I discovered a number of unpub- lished fragments in the frames, some of which could be connected to published material. In addition, I was able to align and connect published fragments on the basis of fibres. The present article discusses new dis- coveries in the Lives of Simonides, Thrasyboulus, and Hyperides, as well as a possible fragment from the Life of Alcaeus, which had not yet been identified.
