Papyri have produced much less new information about Sophocles than about the other two tragic poets. Fragments of the Manteis or Polyidos (P. Oxy. 2453) tell us extremely little; fragments ascribed to the Theseus (P. Oxy. 2452) give a lyric dialogue between Ariadne and Eriboia, one of the Athenian maidens, and Theseus describing his labours to a sympathizer. The difficulty is that Sophocles’ Theseus is very badly attested, and in one of the fragments the language is extremely like Euripides, into whose Theseus the fragments would fit admirably. These fragments may therefore have to be given to Euripides like the papyri formerly attributed to Sophocles’ Assembly of Achaeans.
