The article deals with P. Oxy. II 237, the famous petition to the praefectus Aegypti by Dionysia, daughter of Chairemon, from 186 bc. It deconstructs Dionysia’s case, and revisits the much-disputed questions of a father’s power to take his daughter from her husband’s house, the ‘Law of the Egyptians’, the legal quality of ‘giving a woman into marriage’ (ἔκδοσις) and the requirements and consequences of a ‘written marriage’ (ἔγγραφος γάμος).
