Papyrus 967

P. Köln Theol. 37v (Susanna 62a-62b)

Papyrus 967 (also signed as TM 61933, LDAB 3090) is a 3rd-century CE[1] biblical manuscript, discovered in 1931. It is notable for containing fragments of the original Septuagint text of the Book of Daniel, which was completely superseded by a revised text by the end of the 4th century and elsewhere survives only in Syriac translation and in Codex Chisianus 88. The manuscript is also important for early variants, both in the text of the Book of Ezekiel and of the Book of Daniel.

The exact circumstances of the find are unclear, but the ancient Aphroditopolis is assumed to be the place where it was found.[2][3][4][5]
