Charles Bousfield Huleatt (1863 – 1908) also known under the pseudonym of Caulifield, was an Anglican priest born in Folkestone, England. He is the man who discovered the Magdalen papyrus and was also an early football player-manager of Messina Football Club. ==Discovery of the Magdalen Papyrus== Huleatt travelled as a missionary and while in Luxor, Egypt, discovered three scraps of papyrus which he considered "very important".〔(Library of Congress )〕 He gave these to his old college, Magdalen College, Oxford. The papyrus was dated by consensus as ''ca'' AD 200, however, some date it as early as AD 68; in either case making it the oldest copy of any part of the Gospel of Matthew.〔(UK - International Church of Christ )〕 When illustrated fragments were published by Colin H. Roberts in the 1950s, years after the Reverend's death, they were described as "''an early predecessor of the so-called 'Biblical Uncial". The papyrus is now the most widely discussed fragment of the New Testament in the world. The papyrus is currently in print in the form of a book titled; The Jesus Papyrus Commenting on the book, Richard N. Ostling in Time Magazine stated of it: ''"New Testament scholarship may be revolutionized by three old scraps of papyrus no bigger than postage stamps.''"〔(Yahoo.com )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles Bousfield Huleatt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
