This article deals with the petitions written in Demotic that originate from the Ptolemaic period. These documents have often been overshadowed by their Greek counterparts, a problem which this article aims to remedy. After a short examination of pre-Hellenistic petitioning practices in Egypt, various types of Demotic petitions (most notably the mḳmḳ) and related documents from the Ptolemaic period will be discussed. Lastly, attention will be given to the broader social and administrative context of these texts.
