dc.description.abstract	The site of Amheida lies a few kilometers south of the renowned Islamic mud-brick village of Qasr, in the northwest part of the Dakhleh Oasis. Amheida has long been recognized as one of the two most important archaeological sites of Dakhleh, along with Ismant el-Kharab. A team sponsored by Columbia University and working as part of the Dakhleh Oasis Project began excavations at Amheida in February, 2004.In this article we present two ostraka (out of a total of 105) found in the 2004 excavations, which are of considerable interest for the history of Trimithis as a city and of the Great Oasis more generally in the fourth century.	en
