Fragment of an ancient curse against an opponent in a court dispute

This is a fragment of a talc imprecation cursing an opponent in a court dispute. It is dated to the third to fourth century and was part of a group of multiple fragments. The material chosen for the curse is selenite, which is very rare in contexts of ancient magic.

The joint fragments form an inscription aiming to affect a lawsuit between Timokrates and Theodosios.

Curator’s comments
The fragments were said to have been discovered in a deep shaft containing bones during the digging of a well. In the GR Register, the tablets were attributed to ‘Curium’ (i.e. Kourion (q.v.)), a provenance repeated for over a century in publications. However in the Register ,‘Curium’ was subsequently crossed out and replaced with ‘Agias Tychonas’ (i.e. Ayios Tychonas), though the source of the revised information is not stated. However, the latter area is likely to be correct as some of the BM fragments join with tablets in Paris which are said to come from Amathus. It is likely that the name of the modern village was confused with the ancient site located on the coast to the south, or that the discoverers/vendor lived in Ayios Tychonas who inhabitants farmed the area of Amathus and also harvested its antiquities.
