== Sejarah ==
Oxyrhynchus terletak di sebelah barat jalur utama [[sungai Nil]], pada [[Bahr Yussef]] ("Kanal Yusuf"), sebuah cabang sungai Nil yang berakhir di [[Danau Moeris]] dan [[oasis]] [[Fayum]]. Pada zaman [[Mesir kuno]], ada kota di tempat itu yang bernama '''[[Pr (hieroglyph)|Per]]-Medjed''',<ref name="where">{{cite web|url=http://www.papyrology.ox.ac.uk/POxy/oxyrhynchus/whereis.html|title=Where is Oxyrhynchus?|publisher=Oxyrhynchus Online|date=|accessdate=1 June 2007}}</ref> yang menjadi ibukotaibu kota [[Nome (Mesir)|Nome]] [[Mesir Hulu]] ke-19. Setelah [[Aleksander Agung]] menguasai Mesir pada tahun 332 M, kota ini dijadikan kota Yunani yang disebut '''Oxyrhynchou Polis''' (Οξυρρύγχου Πόλις - "kota ikan berhidung (=mulut) runcing").
<!--
In [[Hellenistic]] times, Oxyrhynchus was a prosperous regional capital, the third-largest city in [[Egypt]]. After Egypt was [[Christianization|Christianized]], it became famous for its many [[Church (building)|churches]] and [[monastery|monasteries]].<ref name="where" /> It remained a prominent, though gradually declining, town in the [[Roman Empire|Roman]] and [[Byzantine Empire|Byzantine]] periods. After the [[Muslim conquest of Egypt|Arab invasion of Egypt around 641]], the canal system on which the town depended fell into disrepair, and Oxyrhynchus was abandoned. Parsons says it was still important in 942.-->

For more than 1,000 years, the inhabitants of Oxyrhynchus dumped garbage at a series of sites out in the desert sands beyond the town limits. The fact that the town was built on a canal rather than on the Nile itself was important, because this meant that the area did not flood every year with the rising of the river, as did the districts along the riverbank. When the canals dried up, the water table fell and never rose again. The area west of the Nile has virtually no rain, so the garbage dumps of Oxyrhynchus were gradually covered with sand and were forgotten for another 1,000 years.
 
Because Egyptian society under the Greeks and Romans was governed bureaucratically, and because Oxyrhynchus was the capital of the 19th [[Nome (Egypt)|nome]], the material at the Oxyrhynchus dumps included vast amounts of paper. Accounts, tax returns, census material, invoices, receipts, correspondence on administrative, military, religious, economic, and political matters, certificates and licenses of all kinds&mdash;allkinds—all these were periodically cleaned out of government offices, put in wicker baskets, and dumped out in the desert. Private citizens added their own piles of unwanted paper. Because papyrus was expensive, paper was often reused: a document might have farm accounts on one side, and a student's text of [[Homer]] on the other. The ''[[Oxyrhynchus Papyri]],'' therefore, contained a complete record of the life of the town, and of the [[civilization]]s and [[empire]]s of which the town was a part.
 
The town site of Oxyrhynchus itself has never been excavated, because the modern Egyptian town is built on top of it, but it is believed that the city had many public buildings, including a theatre with a capacity of 11,000 spectators, a [[hippodrome]], four public baths, a [[Gymnasium (ancient Greece)|gymnasium]], and two small ports on the Bahr Yussef. It is also likely that there were military buildings, such as [[barracks]], since the city supported a military garrison on several occasions during the Roman and Byzantine periods. During the Greek and Roman periods, Oxyrhynchus had temples to [[Serapis]], [[Zeus]]-[[Amun]], [[Hera]]-[[Isis]], [[Atargatis]]-[[Bethnnis]] and [[Osiris]]. There were also [[Greek temple]]s to [[Demeter]], [[Dionysus]], [[Hermes]], and [[Apollo]]; as well as [[Roman temple]]s to [[Jupiter (god)|Jupiter Capitolinus]] and [[Mars (god)|Mars]]. In the Christian era, Oxyrhynchus was the seat of a [[Diocese|bishopric]], and the modern town still has several ancient [[Coptic Christianity|Coptic Christian]] churches.

== Ekskavasi ==
{{main|Papirus Oxyrhynchus}}
Pada tahun 1882, Mesir masih menjadi wilayah nominal [[Kekaisaran Utsmaniyah]], kemudian di bawah kekuasaan [[Britania Raya]], dan arkeolog dari Inggris mulai mengadakan eksplorasi sistematik di negeri itu. Karena Oxyrhynchus tidak dianggap situs Mesir kuno yang penting, tempat itu diabaikan sampai tahun 1896, ketika dua ekskavator muda, [[Bernard Pyne Grenfell|Bernard Grenfell]] dan [[Arthur Hunt]], keduanya dari [[The Queen's College, Oxford|Queen's College]], [[Oxford University|Oxford]], mulai mengadakan ekskavasi di sana. "Impresi pertama saya dalam meneliti situs ini kurang menyenangkan," tulis Grenfell. "Gundukan-gundukan sampah ternyata hanyalah gundukan-gundukan sampah saja."<ref name=luijendijk>Quoted in A.M. Luijendijk, "Sacred Scriptures as Trash: Biblical Papyri from Oxyrhynchus" ''Vigiliae Christianae'', 2010.</ref> Namun, segera mereka menyadari apa yang mereka temukan. Kombinasi unik iklim dan keadaan lingkungan menyebabkan Oxyrhynchus merupakan tempat yang tiada bandingnya untuk menyimpan naskah-naskah dunia kuno. "Aliran papirus kemudian menjadi arus deras," Grenfell mengingat-ingat. "Hanya membalikkan tanah dengan sepatu bot seringkalisering kali menghasilkan satu lapisan baru."<ref name=luijendijk/>

Being classically educated Englishmen, Grenfell and Hunt were mainly interested in the possibility that Oxyrhynchus might reveal the lost masterpieces of classical Greek literature. They knew, for example, that the ''[[Constitution of Athens]]'' by [[Aristotle]] had been discovered on Egyptian papyrus in 1890. This hope inspired them and their successors to sift through the mountains of rubbish at Oxyrhynchus for the next century. Their efforts were amply rewarded: it has been estimated that over 70% of all the literary papyri so far discovered come from Oxyrhynchus, both copies of well-known standard works (many in versions significantly closer to the originals than those that had been transmitted in medieval manuscripts) and previously unknown works by the greatest authors of antiquity.
Baris 37:
There were also extensive remains of the ''Hypsipyle'' of [[Euripides]], fragments of the comedies of [[Menander]], and a large part of the ''[[Ichneutae]]'' of [[Sophocles]].<ref>Sophocles' ''Ichneutae'' was adapted, in 1988, into a play entitled ''[[The Trackers of Oxyrhynchus]]'', by British poet and author [[Tony Harrison]], featuring Grenfell and Hunt as main characters.</ref> Also found were the oldest and most complete diagrams from [[Euclid]]'s ''[[Euclid's Elements|Elements]]''. Another important find was the historical work known as the ''[[Hellenica Oxyrhynchia]]'', whose author is unknown but may be [[Ephorus]] or, as many currently think, [[Cratippus of Athens|Cratippus]]. A life of [[Euripides]] by [[Satyrus the Peripatetic]] was also unearthed, while an ''[[epitome]]'' of seven of the 107 lost books of [[Livy]] was the most important literary find in [[Latin language|Latin]].
 
The classical author who has most benefited from the finds at Oxyrhynchus is the Athenian playwright Menander (342&ndash;291342–291 BC), whose comedies were very popular in Hellenistic times and whose works are frequently found in papyrus fragments. Menander's plays found in fragments at Oxyrhynchus include ''Misoumenos'', ''Dis Exapaton'', ''Epitrepontes'', ''Karchedonios'', ''[[Dyskolos]]'' and ''Kolax''. The works found at Oxyrhynchus have greatly raised Menander's status among classicists and scholars of [[Greek theatre]].

Di antara naskah-naskah [[Kristen]] di Oxyrhynchus dijumpai fragmen-fragmen Injil-injil yang tidak termasuk [[Kanon Alkitab]] misalnya ''Oxyrhynchus 840'' (abad ke-3 M) dan ''[[Papirus Oxyrhynchus 1224]]'' (abad ke-4 M). Teks-teks lain melestarikan bagian-bagian dari ''[[Matius 1|Injil Matius pasal 1]]'' (abad ke-3: ''P2'' dan ''P401''), 11&ndash;1211–12 dan 19 (abad ke-3 sampai ke-4: ''P2384,'' ''2385''); ''[[Markus 10|Injil Markus 10&ndash;1110–11]]'' (abad ke-5 sampai ke-6: ''P3''); ''[[Yohanes 1|Injil Yohanes 1]],'' dan 20 (abad ke-3: ''P208''); ''[[Roma 1|Surat Roma 1]]'' (abad ke-4: ''P209''); ''[[Surat 1 Yohanes]]'' (abad ke-4 sampai ke-5: ''P402''); ''[[Apokalips Barukh]]'' (pasal 12&ndash;1412–14; abad ke-4 atau ke-5: ''P403''); [[Injil menurut orang Ibrani]] (abad ke-3: ''P655''); ''[[Gembala Hermas]]'' (abad ke-3 atau ke-4: ''P404''), dan sebuah karya [[Irenaeus]], (abad ke-3: ''P405''). Banyak bagian-bagian kitab kanon dan nyanyian, doa dan surat-surat Kristen kuno juga didapati di sana.

==The project today==
Baris 53:
Since the days of Grenfell and Hunt, the focus of attention at Oxyrhynchus has shifted. Modern archaeologists are less interested in finding the lost plays of [[Aeschylus]], although some still dig in hope, and more in learning about the social, economic, and political life of the ancient world. This shift in emphasis had made Oxyrhynchus, if anything, even more important, for the very ordinariness of most of its preserved documents makes them most valuable for modern scholars of social history. Many works on Egyptian and Roman social and economic history and on the history of Christianity rely heavily on documents from Oxyrhynchus.
 
In 1966, the publication of the papyri was formally adopted as a Major Research Project of the [[British Academy]], jointly managed by [[Oxford University]] and [[University College London]] and headed by Parsons. The project's chief researcher and administrator is Dr [[Nikolaos Gonis]]. The Academy provided funding until 1999; the project then enjoyed a grant from the [[Arts and Humanities Research Board]], which funded ongoing work until 2005. Today some 100,000 papyrus fragments are housed at the [[Sackler Library]], Oxford, with their indexes, archives and photographic record; it is the biggest hoard of classical manuscripts in the world. About 2,000 items are mounted in glass &mdash; the rest are conserved in 800 boxes.
 
The focus of the project is now mainly on the publication of this vast archive of material: by 2003 4,700 items had been translated, edited and published. Publication continues at the rate of about one new volume each year. Each volume contains a selection of material, covering a wide range of subjects. The editors include senior professionals but also students studying [[papyrology]] at the doctoral or undergraduate level. Thus recent volumes offer early fragments of the ''[[Gospels]]'' and of the ''[[Book of Revelation]],'' early witnesses to the texts of [[Apollonius Rhodius]], [[Aristophanes]], [[Demosthenes]], and [[Euripides]], previously unknown texts of [[Simonides of Ceos|Simonides]] and [[Menander]] and of the [[epigram]]matist [[Nicarchus]]. Other subjects covered include specimens of [[Greek music]] and documents relating to [[Magical thinking|magic]] and [[astrology]].
