Dzieci pozamałżeńskie w świetle źródeł papirusowych z rzymskiego Egiptu
Illegitimate children in papyri from Roman Egypt

Summary/Abstract: The main problem discussed in this paper is illegitimacy in Roman Egypt. In the first part of the text I discuss ways of presenting persons born out of wedlock in papyri, especially documents relating to Roman census in Egypt. The question posed in the second part of the article is whether ways of describing extramarital children could provide us with information concerning their position within the family structure of Roman Egypt.
