J. F. G i l l i a m , A Roman naval Roster: P. Ryland's 79 (repr. from Classical Philology, vol. XCVIII, nr 2, April 1953). G i l l i a m shows that it is a part of a roster of men from at least two ships. Lines 1—-9 conclude the list of those from one; further lines — those from the liburna "Mercury". It appears that the document does not contain a complete roster of shipping com-panies but only specifies certain groups of men selected for some unknown reason. At any rate there is nothing to suggest that these lines form a part of a pridianum.

SURVEY OF LITERATURE 1952—1953 383 This article deals with the question of process and forms concer-ning the transition from the s.c. slavery system to the feudal sy-stem. It has in fact been written to supplement an article by E. M. S t a j e r m a η under the title: Problemu padienija rabovladiel-ceskogo stroją (Yestnik Drevnej Istorii No. 2 (1953) p. 51—79) con-cerning the same subject. The article deserves attention of the papyrologists because it makes use to a large extent of papyrolo-gical material. His remarks on the slavery papyri of the VI cent, are also noteworthy.

These three dissertations which deal with the law of slavery and are undoubtedly very interesting for the papyrologists, will be dis-cussed by K l i m a in his report concerning the cuneiform law.
THE LAW OF PROPERTY
R. T a u b e n s c h l a g , Miscellanea papirologica (Aegyptus X X X I I , p. 459—465).
This article is devoted to the δίκη καρπού and to the question in what manner the Greco-Egyptian law protects the proprietor of the ground against someone who intends to build or who has already built on that ground. The problem in what manner this law pro-tects the proprietor who intends to build on his ground and is impe-ded by someone, is also dicussed.
