Abstract: The Egyptian micro-region of Gebelein was, during the later Ptolemaic period, the seat of a military garrison. At the same time, it looked back to a long tradition, with a temple devoted to the main goddess Hathor. There is a great amount of papyri preserved from this period, in Greek as well as Egyptian language and script. While many of the family archives have been now been studied quite thoroughly, one important archive remains seriously understudied. This is the temple archive, nowadays dispersed over several collections, most especially Cairo, Turin, Heidelberg, Berlin, London and Paris. It comprises several hundred items, even if many of them are fragmentary. Starting from reading the mostly unpublished original documents of Heidelberg, a project has formed which aims at editing and analyzing this archive. Most of the texts are of an economic and administrative nature, but there are also some literary and religious texts.
