The present paper constitutes the second part of the publicaton of Coptic ostraca discovered by Tomasz Górecki in the Theban hermitage MMA 1152. The twenty-eight texts edited here are of legal and economic character, including a few letters of protection and tax receipts, fragments of private contracts, and various economy-related documents (lists, accounts, dipinti). While attesting to a limited administrative activity, these texts, like the letters, reveal their whole value when compared with other documents of the same sort coming from the region.
